Import materials from VRScene errors

[jbvfx]

Hi,

Trying to import materials from Houdini in Maya using the "Import materials from VRScene" option in the VRay menu.
It works for some materials but not others.
The ones that doens't work gives a lot of errors like:

The plugs are not of compatible types
Connection not made: 'remapHsv63.outColor' -> 'metalBoltgunlDirtyBoots_0_4.bumpMap'. Destination attribute must be writable.

If i try to connect the attributes afterwards, then it does allow the connection, so not sure whats going on here.
I'm using Maya 2024.2 and VRay 6.20.03.32852 and Houdini 20.0 and VRay 6.2.05.22651.

I have attached a vrscene file for testing.

I'm not sure either. There must be a hiccup in the script itself. I'm having real trouble working with this .vrscene (Hypershade stuck). Do you mind exporting a simple .vrscene from Houdini (Remap HSV to V-Ray Bump) to see if the issue is evident like that? Please, attach the .vrscene here.

Hi Aleksandar,

I tried your suggestion and that works as expected. Would it be possible to have the DEV team take a look at what breaks in the bigger vrscene file? It's a bit of an urgent matter for us.

Thanks!

FYI: I've logged an issue (internal bug-tracker id: VMAYA-13259) for dev investigation. Will report back when I have more info.
