-	~~TODO~~ - ~~Quick Start Setup for~~ Nuke ~~Here~~:	+	The overall process of setting up Nuke with ButterflyNetRender is very straight forward:
		+
		+	== Install: ==
		+
		+	'''(Windows):'''
		+	*1. Install Nuke locally on all the Windows Rendernode machines (in the same location on all machines)
		+
		+
		+	*2. Set the Install paths in the BNR Controller
		+
		+	== Configure: ==
		+	'''Configure paths and settings in BNR Controller:'''
		+
		+	In the BNR Controller:
		+
		+	*1. Turn on the '' platform: (Options->Configure->Select Platforms)
		+	[[File:selectplatforms.png]]
		+
		+	*2. Set the location of the 'nuke.bat' (the local path on each Rendernode) (Options->Configure Platforms - Nuke)
		+
		+	*3. Confirm you have the correct command line settings:
		+	(download the updated '[[File:rendertype1.cfg]]' file and place into the BNR install folder - replacing the current one - Make sure the Controller is not running when you replace the file)
		+
		+	== Restart: ==
		+	Restart the BNR Controller.
		+
		+	== Add: ==
		+	'''Now add nuke (.nuk) scene file for rendering:'''
		+
		+	After you add the scene - you will need to:
		+
		+	*1. Select the Frame range (Output Tab)
		+	*2. Select the Output Frame format (Output Tab)
		+
		+
		+	'''''Make sure you add the scene from the Shared Network folder (that all the rendernodes have access to - otherwise the rendernodes will not be able to load the scene)
		+	'''''
		+
		+	== Test: ==
		+
		+	The best way to test a to confirm the setup is working:
		+
		+	*1. Make sure Nuke is installed on the controller (in the same location as the RenderNodes)
		+	*2. Add a Nuke scene into BNR
		+	*3. Select the 'Render' Tab
		+	*4. Press the 'Test Render Command" and then press 'Launch Locally'
		+
		+	This will run the same command the Rendernodes will get - but you will get to see more information directly. You will need to check the 'Task Manager' to see if the Nuke is running in the back ground
		+
		+
		+	Right click on the Scene and a select "Open Scene Trace Log folder" and you should find the output text "Render_.txt" - Please open with notepad to view the text.
		+
		+	(note if you see *.csv files - these are BNR Controller state flows)
