Render Setup

There are two MtoA template nodes available in the Render Setup window in Maya. They contain basic overrides for Ai Standard shaders.

Note:

Installing MtoA as a different user from the one that Maya was installed with could cause an issue with the presets not working. If they are missing, go to your MtoA installation folder, and copy the files from RSTemplates to your 'Users template Location'.

You can set the 'User Templates Locations' in the Rendering section of Maya's Preferences. The files should be included in the ../maya/RSTemplates/ location in the users directory.

If the template path has been setup correctly, you should see the following Arnold templates in the Render Setup window:
