I'm trying to get MR to work into houdini, but no luck so far. I'm following these tutorials:

http://odforce.net/wiki/index.php/MentalRaySetup

The ray.exe executes and uses processor time, but it appears to just hang, i need to end the process. Sometimes an image file pops into the specified folder, but the file is broken and cannot be opened. So basically, it doesn't work. Also MR cannot use houdini's mplay... http://www.sidefx.com/index.php?option=com_forum&Itemid=172&page=viewtopic&t=14056&highlight=imdisplay

... here they discuss how to do it, but i don't understand very well.

Can anyone help?
