Is there a way to activate iRay for Maya on the Mac? I really would like to use it, when the edu versions are available!

This is probaly the same technic: you copy the iRay’s .dll in the Maya bin folder and run the MEL script.

I have Maya 2012, have downloaded the dll and placed them where required.
I am having no luck getting iRay running tho, can activate it but as soon as I try to use the ipr to use it I get a fatal error :

PHEN 0.27 warn : maya_state(): Called on an unexpected ray.
IRAY 0.27 error: cannot get memory statistics from device
IRAY 0.28 error: cannot get memory statistics from device
IRAY 0.27 error: not enough memory on device 0, not using this device for rendering
IRAY 0.28 error: not enough memory on device 1, not using this device for rendering

I am running win 7, dual Xeon’s 48Gb ram and dual 580GTX so there is enough ram.

Any help would be much much appreciated :)

Autodesk guy’s are biased to 3ds Max for sure.
They will Ruin Maya. That’s the main intention for purchasing Alias.

What’s the point if iray maya does not support textures?…

I use Maya Form The Begging Of Time and You Came Autodesk And Buy It OK Good Love the Work In Nparticle But Now What R U Doing Guys No iray In Maya In Maya No iray This is !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
