Bug: Render elements do not pathmap correctly #264

Description

@yuanmich2

Describe the bug

Render Elements create multiple output files that later get composited together into the final image. These intermediate files seem to ignore pathmapping parameters passed to the DCC and will throw an error if the output path doesn't exist on the worker.

Expected Behaviour

Render elements should be pathmapped like all other elements in a 3ds Max scene.

Current Behaviour

The render throws an error because the output directory doesn't exist on the worker.

Reproduction Steps

Submit a scene with render elements defined to Deadline Cloud. Note that render elements are a part of V-Ray.

Environment

At minimum:

  1. Operating system: Windows
  2. Version of 3ds Max: 2026
  3. Version of this package: 0.3.3

Requires V-Ray. I used version 7.30.0.2
