Win/Linux dirmapping
Hi,
We're planning on replacing Windows with CentOS (Linux) in our render farm.
Since we work on Windows machines but will be rendering on Linux machines I have to switch out the Windows paths to Linux paths, and I'm currently doing that via Maya's dirmap command. This seems to work well with file paths throughout Maya. However, I noticed that it did not affect the irradiance map file path when I was performing some testing. Please see Linux render log below, where the irradiance map is not found.
The command executed to generate the log below was "/usr/autodesk/maya2014-x64/bin/maya/bin/Render P:/RnD/fredrik/012-maya/002-maya/maya/scenes/ren/tractor.ma" performed on a Linux machine. Although we probably won't execute commands like this, it shows that dirmap works and is in effect.
Is it possible that dirmap does not work with plugins such as V-Ray for Maya?
I'm performing all dirmap commands via userSetup.mel.

Is it possible that dirmap does not work with plugins such as V-Ray for Maya?
I'm performing all dirmap commands via userSetup.mel.
