• To install Ocula and display the installation dialog, type the name of the install file without the file extension and press Return:

ocula-<version>-win-x86-64-installer

• To install Ocula silently so that the installer does not prompt you for anything but displays a progress bar, enter /S /ACCEPT-FOUNDRY-EULA after the installation command:

ocula-<version>-win-x86-64-installer /S /ACCEPT-FOUNDRY-EULA

Note: If you omit /ACCEPT-FOUNDRY-EULA the installer displays an error message. By using the /ACCEPT-FOUNDRY-EULA install option, you agree to the terms of the End User Licensing Agreement. To see this agreement, please refer to Foundry's End User License Agreement or run the installer in standard, non-silent mode.

Tip: You can display a list of install options using the /HELP command:
ocula-<version>-win-x86-64-installer /HELP

By default, Ocula is installed to:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Nuke\<version>\plugins\Ocula\<version>

• To install Ocula to a specified directory during silent installations, use the /D install option:

ocula-<version>-win-x86-64-installer /S /ACCEPT-FOUNDRY-EULA /D=E:\Ocula\

Note: If you install Ocula in a non-standard location, don't forget to add the directory to the NUKE_PATH environment variable so that Nuke can locate the plug-ins. See Defining the Nuke Plug-in Path for more information.
