Send to Max, with vRay shaders

[Kelv]

I'm looking at get my Maya scene into unreal via Datasmith plugin. Unfortunately, there is no such plugin for maya so have to send scene into max first.
If I go to 'File > Send scene to maya' it doesnt send across material information.

Whats the best way of getting all my materials from Maya to Max, so I can export them through Datasmith?

The best approach would be to use V-Ray for Unreal and directly load the .vrscene file previously exported from V-Ray for Maya - the same way you can transfer Maya scenes to 3ds max along with the materials. Other methods (i.e. loading the .vrscene in 3ds and exporting to .udatasmith; applying the materials through VRayVRMatMtls, etc.) would only transfer the geometry.
