In this course we're going to look at something a little different, creating technically accurate 3D printed parts.

Basic sun in mental ray

Hey guys,

so i'm making a space scene, created a nice sun with point light and added nice glow and halo effects to it - but it won't render in mental ray. So i want to create a sun in maya that renders with mental ray, but I just don't know how to do it - anything that looks decent will work. The problem is I cant really search the web since all results is about the maya physical sun/sky - witch is not what i'm looking for.

I don't think the halo FX are supported by MR, you'd have to software render that out and comp it.
