v-ray for maya 2016

[t.petrov]

I don't know what render manager are you using, but keep in mind that Maya 2016 requires more folders to be added to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable.
It has something to do bifrost and other modules, probably xgen, too.
If you diff the maya2015 and maya2016 scripts you'll see the difference I'm talking about.

I think, I saw similar crashes, when I tried to launch maya.bin directly, without the wrapper script and without adding these paths to LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

Okay. I'm not the only one with this problem: http://forums.autodesk.com/t5/maya-g...ux/m-p/5607694

Solution:

export MAYA_DISABLE_CIP=1

Now everything works fine and we can render V-Ray build 25823 without issues.

Yes, I believe I got that sorted during the early beta phase of Maya 2016... so I think I should be all set there.

Do you mean just diff'ing the folders in Maya's scripts dir, or how do you do that? I've always wanted a solid method to figure out what to put in that environment variable.

We use Pixar's Tractor by the way. But I don't think that matters as I set up the environment manually.

I'm diffing /usr/autodesk/maya2014-x64/bin/maya2014 and /usr/autodesk/maya2016/bin/maya2016.
I don't have 2015 installed, so probably the change has happened there. But I've skipped it.
