Render looks differnetly through deadline

Hi all,

I've installed Thinkbox Deadline on my machine to manage my Octane renders. it seems to work but render looks a bit darker.
I'm submitting & rendering only on one machine. without any network related.

2 images attached. Darker image is the image that passing through Deadline.
Any ideas what can cause it? it doesn't seems like a gamma issue.

Thank you!

it has nothing to do with multipass. it gets darker when you use the camera imager and render with commandline.

Hi,
what happen if you switch from Thin lens to Panoramic camera type in the Octane Camera Tag?
If the render is not panoramic, then the Octane Camera tag is completely skipped by deadline software I think :roll:

Ahmet? Someone?
It doesn't make sense that no one can help with it.

It's related with a bug in version checking. Somewhat read wrong version value when you launch from command line and It modifies camera imager gamma value to adopt for old system. I'll fix it.
