I'm quite new to vray. I could see that during installation some maya files are modified. Some mel scripts as well as some files are copied into the maya bin directory.
Because we try to seperate everything from the base maya installation here, I tried to remove all these files and move them into the module.
The modified mel scripts can be placed into the module scripts directory. This way they are read before any maya scripts.
The vrayRenderer.xml file can be placed into the module directory and then a variable called MAYA_RENDER_DESC_PATH shold be set.
Same with the binaray files. It seem they are exactly the same as the ones in the vray/bin directory. So there is no need to copy them, setting the path variable should be okay.
This way the only modification would be setting some environmen varialbles, e.g. in the Maya.env file and everything will work. This can be extremly helpful if we have to install a new hotfix or update.
