Has anyone got the bumpCombiner working in maya 8.5? I will certainly miss this one.

Hey, thats good news.
What version do you have? (mine is bumpCombiner_v1.3 and it fails to be loaded when maya starts up).

im using version bumpCombiner_v1-v1.3-.3b. one thing i notice if u cut and paiste the string to add to ya rayrc file, there is an error there

link "{MAYABASE}/lib/bumpCombiner.{DSO}"
mi "{MAYABASE}/bumpCombiner.mi"


u need to add include into the string for the .mi file

hope this helps

Many thanks Matt.
My maya.rayrc was ok, but after reading your post I was determined to find the problem. It turns out that an old shader called BoolTrace.dll was somehow preventing bumpCombiner from loading. So I deleted BoolTrace.dll and its .mi - problem solved. Wierd!
So thanks again.
