No, I didn’t get any feedback, but I just read the documentation and figured it out myself. I have Deadline set to process each render sequence on one machine at a time, and not split it up. Sometimes it just one dedicated Mac Pro in the render group, and other times she adds her workstation to the group and it will pick up the next sequence in the queue. The biggest thing I had to get thru my head was that I needed to use a root volume for all shared directories, including the repository. The Thinkbox support team was also helpful and responsive when I hit a couple issues (at that time, AE CC 2014 wasn’t supported yet).

For those that need to use CS6, like I have to for a current project with RED ERPIC footage, there are two files that need to be updated:
After Effects CS6.app\Contents\ImporterREDServer.app
After Effects CS6.app\Contents\Plug-Ins\(Media-Core)\ImporterRED.bundle -
Ah right, the random effector. Unlike cloning, though, the Index Ratio mode doesn’t work in the multi shader on this, just Average Color. Is that right? Also, is there a poly limit to fracture? It works on a simple test, but surprisingly hangs up C4D when applied to the tree leaves.

This is what was causing the error for me: I use marker shortcuts for my in/out points and didn’t notice that my actual work area had gotten moved somewhere offscreen. Actually it had disappeared completely. I saw the markers, so I thought my workarea was set properly, it wasn’t. I noticed this when I went to another comp that wasn’t having the preview error and saw the work area handles and light gray bar in between the markers (CS4 Mac). I don’t know how my work area was changed or removed, but it was. I simply went to my markers and used the b/n hotkeys to reset my in/out points. Ram preview worked fine afterwards.
