serious mental ray bug in maya 2011: ao+colorbleed stop FG bounces
Thanks matteo for the confirmation. Good found!
At least we got a workaround for this unacceptable bug.
cheers,

All the app: 3dsmax, Maya, Softimage and Mr Standalone, Share the same Dll, exactly the same!
all are identical!
Edit: If the Architecural.dll work fine in 3dsmax it should work with Maya and other, since it’s the same dll

Hi Dagon
if you have mr standalone, you can copy the Ray.exe from standalone to Maya bin folder, than just rename the Raye.exe to Render.exe

Agree with that, I cannot download the whole package in this days, could someone upload just that .dll provided with Max 2011?
Thanks!
P.s : Matteo puoi fare tu l’upload di quella dll? Grazie 
I got it replaced. Up and working now… Is it ok to upload it ? I don’t want any problems with big bad guys haha 
I’m looking for “architecture.dll” from Max 2011 mentalray folder.
I don’t think there will be any problem for you guys if you post that file here because it could be freely dowloaded from the 30days trial.
I just got no time to download the whole package just for that .dll

Maya 2011 seems have a lot of bug. After I used week. I think I stay with Maya 2009. :sad:
Now “Auto” have 3 major 3d software. Seems no competitor now, so become lazy.
