How to Bring Camera Animation from Maya into Vantage. Is this not possible?

[HungryNeck]

I have been digging for the answer to this for a while now. Can you not import an abc or even a vrscene of animated cameras into Vantage to render out animated sequences? This seems like a massive set back to this software if not, to the point I need to receive a refund. Vantage would be an excellent answer to rendering previs or even medical animation if it has this option. Any assistance in getting an animated camera from Maya to Vantage seamlessly would be much appreciated.

Vantage supports vrscene files with multiple animated cameras. I'm not sure if you're asking about multiple cameras or even just one animated camera exported from Maya. If it's just the main camera then it's simple to export from the Translator rollout in render settings (and relevant frame range in the next rollout) https://docs.chaos.com/display/VMAYA...tab-Translator
If you want to export multiple cameras then V-Ray for Maya also supports this but in a more manual way. I did it by submitting a cloud job (which didn't do anything because I have no credits) -- which creates a temporary vrscene file that contains all the cameras and I could get the path to it from the log. I then learned that there is a better way to do that: fill the filename in the Translator render settings as before, but instead of starting a render the normal way, use the script command

vrend -multiCamera "persp1 persp2"

where the string contains the names of the cameras. https://docs.chaos.com/display/VMAYA/vrend+Command
Make sure to uncheck the *render* checkbox so that V-Ray will only export the file without rendering images.

is there any tutorials on this with max?

What do you mean? The export works much more easily in Max - multiple cameras are exported by default through the ".vrscene exporter" dialog.
