Got it thanks!
I set my verbose too high and got caught up in all the messages.
Mantra rocks!!
Thanks for the help!

You need to import the parameter inside the shader, have you done
that? (Not bind)
Also set the parameter to export always. Minute 7:00 of that video..

Thanks! I tried it in a new scene and got it working just fine.
Then I tried it in my production scene, and I get this error for
each object in the scene:
mantra: Variable wallMatte (vector) not found for export in shader
'op:/obj/eyesRender/shopnet1/eyeOutside'
What does that mean?
I didn't get this shit in my test scene?
The matte renders, but I don't want to just ignore this error!
Thanks for all the input guys!

In regards to your after effects question, I think there is a
plugin that allows you to extract buffers.
To get additional buffers, you need to create an attribute and
then call it from inside the shader with a Bind.
If it's not inside the shader it will not show on the final render.
If this is not clear, have a look at this video:

Hey guys.
I'm getting to the rendering part of this job, and have found
image planes in mantra.
They seem really cool, but I've hit a few snags.
First of all, They seem to render into either one big EXR
file, or into multiple exr files, but each image plane goes
into its own exr channel.
This makes them pretty useless in afterfx.
Is there a way to get them to render like frame buffers in
softimage, where each channel goes into its own exr, but not
into some obscure channel within that exr.
Alternatively, do you guys know of a fast way to export these
channels into the rgba channels of a new exr?
Second question.
In softimage I used frame buffers to render mattes for
objects in my scene.
Can this be done with image planes?
I tried creating a color parameter in my shader, and then
calling that as a new image plane, but I just got a black
frame and errors.
Thanks for reading guys
