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

Smooth proxy stops working?

Hi,

I wondered if this is a known bug and if it is if anyone knows a fix.

In maya 2008, I've been working with a proxy, creasing edges etc. I've deleted the proxy group and history, and mirrored and merged my geometry. I now try and use a new proxy; it creates, the nodes are there and I can see both meshes, but it doesn't work; when I press "`" to switch between them, I get the error

"// Error: No proxy detected on |handleSmoothProxyGroup|handle|handleShape. Apply subdiv proxy or convert to a subdiv. If the object is a subdiv it must be in polygon mode.".

Anyone seen this and know how to fix?

cheers

Sorted it. Reapplied the material shader and it worked again.
