Missing mia-materials. Any idea?
Hello,
i´m facing a problem with the mental ray plugin and already asked for help in different forums.
Maybe you can help?!
I´ve installed mental ray (and yeah, it´s "loaded") but there are no presets for mia_materials. Simply missing.
Attribute Editor -> Presets -> mia_material_x# Should be the right tab. When i click on "Presets*" it only offers "Save mia_..." and "Edit Presets".
Searched online for hours without any success. Already reinstalled Maya and Mental Ray plugin.
My involved folders:
- C:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2016
- C:\Program Files\Autodesk\mentalrayForMaya2016
- C:\Users\Username\Documents\maya
All material scripts are in the "C:\Program Files\Autodesk\mentalrayForMaya2016\presets\attrPr esets\mia_material_x" folder.
Example SS:

How can i import them? | Do i need to load another plugin? | Are there differnt versions of mental ray?
Any idea what may cause the problem?
Thanks for reading!
