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.

Physically Accurate Lighting in Mental Ray - Error Message

Hi All, I've downloaded the Physically Accurate Lighting in Mental Ray tutorial and because I'm using Maya 2012 I've loaded the compatible version that was included with the download rather than the ones specifically for Maya 2013.

However, it still brings up an error message and tells me to consult the script editor for details.

This is what is in the script editor:

file -f -options "v=0" -typ "mayaAscii" -o "D:/SimplyMayaTutorials/Physically Accurate Lighting in Mental Ray/int_lighting_vol_one/scenes/Ty_House_for_Lighting.ma";addRecentFile("D:/SimplyMayaTutorials/Physically Accurate Lighting in Mental Ray/int_lighting_vol_one/scenes/Ty_House_for_Lighting.ma", "mayaAscii");
// Warning: file: D:/SimplyMayaTutorials/Physically Accurate Lighting in Mental Ray/int_lighting_vol_one/scenes/Ty_House_for_Lighting.ma line 266232: Unrecognized node type 'misss_fast_shader2_x'; preserving node information during this session. //

// File read in 0 seconds.
// Error: Invalid flag '-objectFilterShowInHUD' //
// Warning: Errors have occurred while reading this scene that may result in data loss.
Please check the Script Editor for details. //

Is this going to cause me problems later on, or can I just save my file and ignore it.

Thanks, the Yeti.

No, it won't cause any issues.


Imagination is more important than knowledge.
