Linux

These pages guide you through installation and licensing to the point where you have the application in front of you and are ready to start work. After installation, all applications are run from either desktop icons, the browser, or from the command line using arguments.

Note:  The instructions contained in these pages cover installing Nuke, because Hiero is part of the Nuke bundle and cannot be installed separately.

Tip:  For an overview of the documentation and quick access to the main topics, go to Hiero Home.

System Requirements

Qualified Operating Systems

Note:  Installing Nuke 13.0 takes significantly longer than Nuke 12.2 builds due to the upgrade to Python 3 and the addition of the PyTorch library.

• CentOS 7.4, 7.5, and 7.6 (64-bit)

Note:  The VFX Platform 2020 upgrade includes library versions that are only compatible with CentOS 7.4, or later.

For more information on hardware requirements, see the release notes on the What's New in Nuke, Nuke Studio, and Hiero 13.2 page.
