Hi!

I'm able to export @Cd to maya with alembic but when I try the same thing with @myCd it doesn't show up in Maya.

Anything I'm doing wrong?

Thanks.

The attribute must be type ‘color’ in order for maya to recognize it as a color set. You can set the type to color using an attribute create sop, or with the vex function “setattribtypeinfo.”

Ah!

It's “funky” that maya doesn't just pick all the vector attributes. Oh well, it now works!

Thanks a lot, jsmack!

Does anybody know, how I render these Mesh-Colors in Arnold with Maya?

If I remember well:

If your mesh color is a vertex color, you can check in the “color set editor”. If you see the name of the vertex color (e.g. “myMeshColor” ), you can probably use the ai userdatacolor node and type “myMeshColor” in that node to access it.

If it's not found in the “color set editor”, it's probably another type of attribute. In that case, you can probably use another “user data..” node to access it but I can't remember which one…
