Hi!

This scene requires Mental Ray, so wait for Mental Ray for Maya 2018 to be released, or use Maya 2017 (with MR plug-in) to open the scene.

Hello I manage commented out the MR nodes with a Text Editor, I was not able to recover the rig but the model seems to be there !

I added a quick Human IK rig to it !

The only way to fix this is in a text editor but it wont be easy it will take a lot of trial and error but it can be done, or try getting the MR plugin, that might work, although I would change mayas evaluation mode from parallel to DG as this is an old rig !

please find the maya file attached.

I know it does not solve the problem but it is a good start !
