2022 nightly issues thread

[yolov]

still having troubles with purple fringing and ocio. tried with native maya 2022 and legacy color management. (had the same issue on Maya 2020.4)

Using todays nightly build.

This is something we're yet to look into. It's on our to-do list. I suppose the legacy OCIO setup should work the same as before.

[doppelgaengerdigital]

tried it with legacy ocio setup loaded, but I get the same results. just to let you know...

[francomanko]

i noticed the translucency option has been added in the vryamtl, with SSS or volumetric options, but not for GPU.. will this be added on release?

I get this Qt warning when I try to open the V-Ray framebuffer.
I don't think I can update the Qt version used by Maya or can I?

What OS is this? If this is macOS, can you tell me the exact OS version?

Windows 10 Pro 1909

Can you get me the V-Ray version from the V-Ray menu > about (it's also printed in the output window where it says initializing vray).
Can you also get me the Maya version?
Can you check if you have other Maya versions installed?

Can you get me the contents of the PATH variable?
You can do this from a windows command prompt by just typing

set PATH

and copy the result here.
If you're more comfortable, you can use the windows environment variable editor (start menu > search for environment)

Latest version doesnt work for me. Does crash after some seconds of rendering.
I use Maya2022 in Python 2 mode.

[oglu]

looks like i get an xGen issue. But there is no xgen in this scene. just a sphere.

Are you using the zip builds?
Can you try and change the order of Z:/Vray/vray_adv_51020_maya2020_x64/maya_vray/bin/hostbin and Z:/Vray/vray_adv_51020_maya2020_x64/maya_vray/bin? bin/hostbin must be set before bin/

Here's the correct order:

C:/Program Files/Autodesk/Maya2020/bin
Z:/Vray/vray_adv_51020_maya2020_x64/maya_vray/bin/hostbin
Z:/Vray/vray_adv_51020_maya2020_x64/maya_vray/bin
C:/Program Files/Autodesk/Bifrost/Maya2020/2.2.1.0/bifrost/bin

Let me know if that helps

I'll need to pass this on to the devs.
In the meantime - is there any particular reason you need to run 2022 with python 2? AFAIK 2022 only supports python 2 with an env variable for legacy compatibility, but by default uses python 3.

[oglu]

Rigging tools and inhouse pipeline is still on Python2.

[yolov]

V-Ray is built for 2022 with only Python 3 support, that's why it's failing for you. Initially, Maya 2022 was supposed to ship with Python 3 only, but now there's this legacy option with the environment variable.
For now this won't work.

However, I've discussed it with the devs and we can try and make it work for Python 2, but there will be limitations:
1. XGen won't work
2. The V-Ray Post-Translate Python callback won't work.

Are you OK with those limitations?
