MR sure didn't make my Maya's own renderer dissappear, and it shouldn't do it anyways. Are you 100% sure it's not still there? Have you tried to press the small buttons representing the "render" and "rendering globals", next to the button to control construction history.

yes i can still render with the native renderer however i cannot access the native renderer globals , only the MR globals, thi sucks because i cannot for example select the size of the image i want to render, i always get the default smallest size if i render with the maya renderer

This problem sounds weird, have you tried looking for the buttons I described in my last reply? Or do you mean that Maya goes to MR rendering globals even when you press the native rendering globals button/menu option?

yes i did but it gives an flag error if i try to access the maya render globals "any way" even with the little button, however as soon as i uninstall mr they are perfect.
