Hey guys, anybody had any luck using AO maps in solaris using either VEX or MTLx? I haven't been able to get either the VEX nor the materialX occlusion nodes to work. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

Yes with CPU, no with XPU.

I've attached both vex and matx setups that work with CPU. I understand and expect the vex one to not work with XPU, but I don't understand why the matx one fails with XPU.

Thanks a lot Matt. Hopefully it gets implemented into XPU soon!

No, it hasn't been implemented yet. Luckily I came across this post. Would have never suspected that as the solution.
