New Installers for Deployments

[justinlowe]

Tried searching the forum, but I didn't see any posts on the subject.

Has anybody noticed the "new" deployment options on manage.autodesk.com? I've been having 3DSMax 2021 build errors for months but gave it another go today and I was able to successfully download the files. The new type of installer was able to install ALL of 3DSMax from the network in under 5 minutes.... That's insane. I notice the initial batch script it builds has a whole bunch of parameters in the call. Any chance there is some documentation floating around for this?

Also, I assume this is going to be applied to all the other products at some point. Autodesk folk know when that may be?

Welcome to Autodesk Community.

Yes, there's a knowledge base article on this:

How to create online deployment for Autodesk software

The current software that supported by this new feature are: Maya 2020, Autodesk Maya LT 2020, 3ds Max 2021, VRED 2021.

Moving forward, whenever the installer is using ODIS method, all of their deployment feature will have to be done from Autodesk account.

ODIS (On-Demand Installation Services) method: if you have not realized it, whenever you tried to install Maya 2020 and 3ds Max 2021 without deployment feature, you will be seeing a new user interface.
