Hi,

I've imported lightwave models via the obj format into maya. I've rigged and animated them and now it's time to render.

Unfortunately the mental ray G.I. is not working on my imported models, it does work fine on the models that were made within maya itself though.

I've messed around with the normals, uv's and other stuffies but can't seem to resolve this issue.

Any tips are welcome.

Thanx.

Never mind, I solved the problems. Maya simply 'forgets' to set some default render flags for imported models.... yay!
