Hi,

I ran my render for a basic render and then went to:
File>Load Render Pass>i.e.diffuse.

Now normally, IMF_Disp should open, right? It's not arggh...I navigated to the folder in the Mental Ray plugin(2014 no longer has mental ray inside), and found the application for IMF_Disp and it runs perfectly fine.

Any ideas? I'm new to this part of Maya(taking classes).

Thanks! user added image

ps I get a yellow error strip but the real biggy is that my script editor is still going nuts with commands popping up loadModule -scan;
moduleDetectionLogic;
over and over and over...it;s not stopping.

It's a bug. Get the service pack update.

All the way at the bottom of this page, it mentions having this plugin unchecked will cause some problems.

Did you fully uninstall Maya then install the service pack?

And a firewall isn't blocking Maya? This all seems weird, missing files and whatnot. Maybe poke Autodesk about this.

LOL yeah it's weird. I'm the one in school that always finds things like this LOL. Funny but not funny, you know what I mean?

If I find this little bug out, I'll let everyone know. Argh Maya.

I do know that the imc_Dsp file opens just fine on it's own, but for some reason Maya will not open it from the render view even all the rest of the Mental Ray stuff is working.

As of now, no. I have not fixed it. I looked into Maya's default, and pointed it to the IMF, but it still was being difficult. Must be somewhere else is all I can figure.
