Sorry for what I suspect is total noob question/issue.

I've managed to get my lopnet exporting to USD files for rendering with Husk via Deadline.
However...

Somewhere along the way an extra directory or two are added to my output path- these don't exist so then Deadline fails the job. If I add said missing directories, it works just fine.

The path "render/3D_render" gets added.
So, if I set Output Picture to "$HIP/test_render" the workers end up looking for "$HIP/test_render/render/3D_render"

I can't figure out where this is coming from, any suggestions or ideas?

I know the easy fix is to just add those directories my file structure or figure out how to let the worker nodes write missing directories (that seemed to work with Mantra?) but I'd like to better understand what's going on and what I'm doing wrong.

Thanks!
