Hello !

I tried to use mental ray and i interested by the sss shader but i don't have the result i want.
I tried to emit photon but at the rendering. It say to me "Error no photon emit stored" or something like that.
Could you help me or there is a tutorial to make it.

Thank for your help.

There are some really helpful example scene files downloadable from Jeff Patton's website:

I hope that helps. Also consider visiting the 3dsmax resources forum, and checking out the mental ray discussion thread. It is a huge thread, but there are many examples and discussion about using shaders such as SSS. It's worth a read.
