Hi I’m having a problem when connecting the misss_set_normal in the bump, the connection editor pops up :S Im using the middle mouse button.

I’m using Maya 2010, and using this on the mia_material_x because the mia_material doesnt have a bump option.

Any workflow tips for setup of render passes for compositing such as the correct way to setup render passes in maya so that you can get output of specular, reflection, and color ?

Thanks for the reply I finally got it to work:)
The grecscale texture that you mentioned is also supposed to be connected to the mia_materials Ref gloss, right?

And another question. I would like to work with some tilable skin textures, bumpmap or normal map. I would like to have the tilable texture effect the spec bump and reflectivity. any suggestions on how to make this possible

I would be more than gald to send you some example textures and meshes to let you know what I´m working on

have a nice summer !!!:)
