USD and subdivision?

[Twist]

Hello. How do I add subdivision to a usd object?

There is no option of adding subdivision after usd import and if I add subdivision to the shapenode before usd export, Maya crashes.
According to the supported features, this should be possible. So what is the correct workflow?

Using Maya 2023.3 and usd 0.20. Vray 6.00.03, hotfix 1.

Funnily enough I can export a Megascan asset with displacement and subdivision without proplems.

Hi.

I did a fresh install of Maya 2023.3 on Windows and with the latest V-Ray 6 nightly build 31799 I'm also seeing this crash behavior.

In a new Maya scene create a polygon sphere. Then add a V-Ray subdivision attribute to the shape node on the sphere. When you export the sphere to USD Maya crashes.

I wonder why it works with a quixel megascan asset. Have you tried that?

No, I haven't tested any Quixel megascan assets since I don't have access to them at work.
