No worries - just curious, please don't go to any trouble on my account. I can always do the setup inside of Softimage as Lume is still integrated there. I am much more comfortable with render setup in Maya and really only do particle stuff in SI. I must admit, Soft really is growing on me though... Thanks! -nbreslow Hi,

The last version I had working was maya 2010. I may be able to get hold of the max 2012 dll. If I do I'll let you know.

I have a MI_CUSTOM_SHADER_PATH setup and have successfully installed many of the Pixero Mental Ray Shaders in my Maya 2012 x64 Win 7 setup. Unfortunately the installation didn't work - no errors in the script editor, it simply didn't load. I am thinking it might be the SI .dll - just wondering if you knew if a specific .dll needs to be used (3ds Max?) or if these will even load in the current version of Maya? Thanks! -nbreslow Hi,

A warning message in the output window says "Nothing to glare". The same scene renders correctly in 2010 x64. I guess thats not going to help you much, except give you a reason to upgrade maybe.

You need to add the names of the shaders to the first macrocategory between: return "rendernode/mentalray/material:connection/mentalray/shadow:/connection/mentalray/photon:shader/surface:swatch/mentalRaySwatchGen"; and return "rendernode/mentalray/material:shader/surface:swatch/mentalRaySwatchGen"; and so for the other categories. Thanks for your input. They do so well! You need to add the names of the shaders to the first macrocategory between:
