mental ray
 

hi!

i am wanting to render with ambient occlusion in mental ray and changed the option to do so in my file. Then , for some reason when i tried to do so in a new file the mental ray option is not there anymore! maya software, maya hardware and maya vector are still there. can anyone think of why this is as i need to use it?

thank you!

:p

hi there m8 not sure why it does this but, go to window tab/then settings/preferences. now go to plugin manager..now go down to maytomr.mll click on auto load and load.
hit refresh and it should be back up :)

forgot to say, my ambient occlusion option in the hypershade nodes section has gone too!

i have no idea why!

brilliant! they are back!

thank you very much!!!!!!!

:attn:

I was about to ask this same question, because my mental ray dissapeared, thanks for the help

:D no probs
