Introduction to Maya - Rendering in Arnold
This course will look at the fundamentals of rendering in Arnold. We'll go through the different light types available, cameras, shaders, Arnold's render settings and finally how to split an image into render passes (AOV's), before we then reassemble it i

mia material x passes - problem

Have a look at these two renders. One is a basic lanbert and as you see, the rendered mesh is fine.

However, take a look at the render with the mia_material_x_passes...there are parts of my mesh that are not rendering as expected. I have assigned the material to all of the mesh.

Any ideas guys as to where I can look to resolve this issue?

The first image is missing....

Are the normals facing the wrong way ?? - its the only thing I can think off looking at the render as the shadder is working in other places - its even reflecting the bad area`s (hehe). It some times happens when duplicating over groups and i think may have happened here.
