Vertex Colour from Zbrushpolypaint to 3dsmax with Arnold PROBLEM

Hello guys, im trying now over months, to get this problem worked.

 

I use a plugin, which says, that I can import an object with polypaint on it to 3dsmax.

 

Everything is ok. Then i set the renderer to ARNOLD and it does not render the vertex information. I did everything and i read everything. ITS NOT WORKING. Raffael Grassetti uses Arnold in 3dsmax AND Polypaint from zbrush and i dont know how he renders the polypaint vertex in 3dsmax with Arnold.

I know, that when we use the standart scanline renderer, that we have to choose the vertex map inside the diffuse slot, BUT when we change it to Arnold Render, nothing i can do.

 

Is there somebody who knows it now? Maybe there are some improvements?

Any chance you could share a file with us? Would make it easier to troubleshoot.

Sure! Here is the file! When Arnold Renderer is turned on, i cant render the polypaint on the ball. For the test i  have only paint a little red on the ball. (polysphere)

All vertex data sits on UVW channels. The default in max is 0.
You can however, paint on any channel and call the channel with the OSL UVW channel node
