Maya - Cannot render polypaint without shadows...

meanvel

Got a issue with rendering polypaint without shadows. Software renderer cannot render polypaint. Hardware renderer can, but adds shadows. Cannot have shadows... If advanced lighting is turned off, polypaint is turned off.

Any ideas?

Can Mental Ray for Maya 2013 render polypaint? I would likely have to rebuild the .cpp for polyPaintImporter.mll for that version.

What kind of material is on the object?  If it's something like a blinn or phong a surface shader might be a better choice.

Thanks, figured out how to remove shadowing and reflections in Mental Ray.
