Thanks.

Hi.

 

>try disabling the MayaUSD plugin. And notice that this is Ornatrix V4 which is still in beta, you may run into various defects or incompatibilities.

We don't use USD plugins and ornatrix version is not V4.

Thanks.

 

The name of the file OrnatrixTranslator5.0 implies that it is compatible with MtoA 5.0.x only (the major and minor version numbers must match, the third number doesn't have to match).

In the log you posted there is Arnold 6.1.0.0 mentioned, which means your MtoA version is 4.1.
