Mental Ray Maya 2016 Error

[Anonymous]

Hello!

I am having a Problem with mental ray for maya 2016.

In my scene I have created physikal sun and sky - everything works fine until I add a new camera. The problem is, when I want to update my camera connections in the scene I get the following error:

Error: file: C:/Program Files/Autodesk/mentalrayForMaya2016/scripts/AETemplates/AEmia_physicalskyTemplate.mel line 17: No object matches name: mia_physicalsky1.miSkyExposure

I have tried uninstalling and installing mental ray - but that did not help. Am I doing something wrong?

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks in advance!

@Anonymous,

to add the physicalsky to a new camera please try to add it to the mental ray tap of the camera.

I added a screenshot to show you how I did it.

Best, Nadja

Thank you very much for your help! This solution worked fine for me!

It would have been a pain to recreate the lighting and all the cameras from scratch in my scene!
