Hi guys,

was wondering if anyone could help me out.

whenever i render from viewport with maya VRay 3.0, i constantly keep getting this warning on the script editor:

// Warning: Unsupported texture CrowdSwitchShaderVRay

and it's causing my shaders to not render out.

Any ideas?

Hi there,

What's the exact version of V-Ray you're using ?
What's the exact version of Golaem Crowd you're using ?

What's the value of the following MEL command : getenv "VRAY_FOR_MAYA_SHADERS";

Best,

I meant the plugin version:

Inline image 1

In the example above it's 3.10.01

Ok, here's a summary of a problem if someone bumped into the same problem.

The following command:
getenv "VRAY_FOR_MAYA_SHADERS";
returned:
// Result: ;C:/Golaem/GolaemCrowd-4.2.1.1-Maya2015/shaders //

Notice the ";" at the start of the string
In previous versions of VRay (before 3.10), V-Ray doesn't recognize this as a valid path. Thus Golaem Crowd shaders are not loaded

To fix this, just edit the glmCrowd.mod (usually in C:\Users\xxxxxx\Documents\maya\2014-x64\modules\glmCrowd.mod)
from
VRAY_FOR_MAYA_SHADERS +:= shaders
to
VRAY_FOR_MAYA_SHADERS := shaders

Hope that'll help
Best,
