Maya 2022: kick to render ASS files with XGen

Hi,


I am trying to render a .ass file with XGen nodes with kick. The error I get is that `node xgenProcedural is not installed` which is normal.

There is a documentation page here: https://docs.arnoldrenderer.com/display/A5AFMUG/Using+kick+to+render+ASS+files+with+XGen


It says that S:\Program Files\Autodesk\Maya2020\plug-ins\xgen\bin; needs to be added to the PATH env variable but in my Maya 2022 installation there isn't a xgen folder in the plug-ins folder.


I tried with loading the xgen procedural libaries without success:

I have "The specified module could not be found". What does it really mean? I am missing something here?


Thanks a lot

You're missing DLL dependencies. Xgen depends on DLLs shipped with Maya

If you're using XGen in Maya, the plug-in must be there:

Hi @Stephen Blair


Thanks for the answer, actually my Maya 2022 installation doesn't have any xgen folder in the plug-ins folder... I'll check tomorrow but it's strange because XGen works inside Maya.
