Thave you tried converting the image to other format's. I've had maya crash on JPG's when used as textures. Uncompressed formats seem to work the best in maya, bmp's tiff's tga's etc...
So, i did an animation, trying to render it out in mental ray, but one of the models isnt showing up. It will render with maya software, but not mental ray. the model beside it shows up, and casts shadows. but not the other one. anyone have any clue why?
