I think the problem is connected with something between Chaosgroup vray & ornatrix.

when I render with vray 3.6 in maya 2018 / v2 recent version of ornatrix, i have the problem with this comment in script edtior.

"There was a fatal Error updating the scene at time 1.00... for V-ray".

 

so I tested many times with each version of ornatrix.

v1 is very cool, but v2 all version (stable or recent) can't render with Vray.

 

but it is big problem to me.

When I reinstall v1 ornatrix instead of v2,

I can't load the maya file worked with v2 ornatrix.

 

what should i do?

just waiting?

Hi,

To solve this issue use RenderSettings to change the width of the hair instead of ChangeWidth operator. The later is not compatible with VRay yet. RenderSettings operator is not on the shelf anymore but you can add it to your hair stack using the following MEL command: OxAddStrandOperator "" "RenderSettingsNode";

was this ever resolved?

Hi Andy,

This is not an actual issue. You can keep using the RenderSettings operator instead of ChangeWidth, they will give you the exact same results. You can use the ChangeWidth operator but only if you are using the V-Ray Primitive pluging (Which is shipped with Ox V2 installation). You can find the documentation here.

Hi!  Will ChangeWidth be compatible with VRay at some point?  (aside from the vray prim plugin)
if not can we get it added back to the UI to be more artist friendly?

Hi Doug,

It is already compatible via VrayOxHairMaya plugin, this is our new hair translator and should be used with Vray from now on. We decided to go for our own translator to have full control and add new features.

It is also compatible with VRay Next.
