Crash in Maya while using custom DX11 shader in Mayabatch

[Anonymous]

Hi!

We are trying to create objects in mayabatch.

and Applying our custom directx11 shader.

Our Directx11 shader is based on the sample that is given with the DevKit.

First of all, loading the 

ourcustomShader_defaults.mel which is nearly a copy of dx11Shader_defaults.mel create a lot of 

Snippet

$gAEAttrPresetCurrentTarget

is not defined

Then when I tried to load ou cusotm shader, our new maps are not loaded.

And then it makes mayabatch crash in the renderer :

  KERNEL32.DLL!BaseThreadInitThunk
  ntdll.dll!RtlUserThreadStart

If we use the Maya DirectX11 shader, everything is working fine.

So :

- is there any option in MayaBatch to load custom directX11 shader?
- what could cause the renderer to crash in mayaBatch?

I am working in Maya 2017 sp3 on Windows 10
