I`m using maya bonus tools and creating a stereo camera with it.
Unfortunately, I don`t know how to render it.
Using maya software I only get a common image, using mental ray, i
don`t get anything...
Hope u can help.
Thanks

Congratulations, you have a quality sequence of stereo image pairs, ready to be
made into any kind of animation!

Step 8: Putting it all together:

The following is a quick overview on how to make your images into a stereo movie
using the “top/bottom halves”. Keep in mind there may be better ways of creating
stereo animations.

Copy your image files onto a computer with Adobe AfterEffects. Open
AfterEffects. Create a new composition. The size should be the same width that
you chose for the resolution of your animation, and twice the height. Also make
sure the length is long enough to contain all of your images. (This can be
changed later, as you will not know how long your movie will be until you choose
your frame rate.) Otherwise AfterEffects will only render the first 10 seconds
of your animation. After this go to Import File. Find your left image

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Apparently you must "composite" the two images, AfterEffects works so would
Premiere Pro or Shaker (Mac).

I`ve already seen this one, but it doesn't work with maya 7.0. On the
MEL script it requires some eyeOffset attribute on the cameras, which
doesn't exists anymore...
Have u tried it?

No, I looked at it but I've been trying to finish a model lately (this low poly
