Global Options "Maps" disregards procedurals.

[re:FORM]

I was doing a quick test of a post translation python script, using a checker texturemap in the diffuse slot of a vraymaterial, and noticed that disabling maps using the "doMaps" flag wasn't working as expected. Double checking this using the "vray render parameters - global options - advanced - maps" toggle also does not disable the checker procedural. As far as I can remember, this is not the same behaviour that you would get in 3dsmax which would disable all texturemaps/procedurals... am I misremembering or is this a bug?

Thanks

Hi,

It is actually implemented to work this way. Only bitmaps are enabled/disabled with this option, but probably we can change it to work with some of the Maya procedural maps. I can forward it to our developers as a feature request in case that its important for your workflow.
