go to your personal maya 4.5 or 4.0 folder

c:\documents and settings\...\maya\

open the maya.env and insert following sentence

SET MAYA_MRFM_SHOW_CUSTOM_SHADERS=1

start Maya

Have Fun! :airguitar

i was trying to figure that out too thanks for the help !

btw it only worked without the "SET"

so in my .env file theres now

MAYA_MRFM_SHOW_CUSTOM_SHADERS=1

and it works fine

thanks again
