Ooo ok sorry Stefan, but pretty sure MR only uses .map files in that way, otherwise you set the mipmap options and it does it on the fly.

Would exr files works just as well as map files when rendering with mental ray? It would be pretty awesome if I could use the same textures that I generate with maketx to also be used in mental ray. I don't have anything to test right now, so I thought I would shoot the question out there. just a thought... regards stefan -- Stefan Andersson | Digital Janitor blog<http://sanders3d.wordpress.com> | showreel<http://vimeo.com/sanders3d> | twitter<http://twitter.com/sanders3d> | LinkedIn<http://www.linkedin.com/in/sanders3d> | cell: +46-73-6268850<tel:%2B46-73-6268850> | skype:sanders3d -- Stefan Andersson | Digital Janitor blog<http://sanders3d.wordpress.com> | showreel<http://vimeo.com/sanders3d> | twitter<http://twitter.com/sanders3d> | LinkedIn<http://www.linkedin.com/in/sanders3d> | cell: +46-73-6268850 | skype:sanders3d
