Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Lost Mental Ray!

I can't find Mental ray anywhere in the render settings, theres no tab or anything, I'm sure ive used in before, has anyone got any ideas? or is there something obvious im missing?Ive got Maya software, Hardware and vector renderers but thats it.

mental ray sometimes switches itself off. don't think it's anything you did as i've heard others complain of the same problem.
