Matte Surface And Render Setup Overrides

[bobvelocity]

I'm using the render setup in Maya 2016 Ext2 and when I try to create an override for matte surface it fails to work. Am I right in thinking this is a bug? I'm using Maya 2016 Ext2 and VRay 3.4.

Hi,
There are some known issues with this specific overrides and Maya 2106.5, that are fixed in Maya 2017. In your case when you create the render override (Matte Surface) make sure you have the render layer selected not the actual collection that contain the objects them self. That way a new collection with the vrayobjectproperties will be created and there will be the Matte Surface override and it should work fine. Try it out and let me know if it works for you.

Hi Ivan and thanks for the reply.

I've tried what you've suggested and it's worked.

Thankyou.
