latest ktoa can not read latest mtoa shader?

i had tested ktoa 3.1.1.2 and mtoa 4.1.1.1,ktoa arnoldShadingNode can not found maya shader,so decrease ktoa and mtoa version to arnold core version 6.0.2,then ktoa can found mtoa shader.is it a bug?

1. i use env varible "ARNOLD_PLUGINI_PATH" to set mtoa shaders folder. it is not working

2. i had test copy "mtoa_shader.dll" to "ktoa\RenderPlugins" folder,ktoa can found the shaders.it is working

it seems like arnold in ktoa not detect env "ARNOLD_PLUGINI_PATH"

Katana and KtoA installed on C drive.

I use the KtoA LaunchKtoA.bat

ARNOLD_PLUGIN_PATH is set in LaunchKtoA.bat

Hey!


The environment variable is "ARNOLD_PLUGIN_PATH", could you please check if there are no typos in the name?

Just add theses 02 variables to your OS
KTOA_ENABLE_DEPRECATED_SHADERS = 1
KTOA_ENABLE_OTHER_DCC_SHADERS = 1
but most of them are deprecated

Deprectated shaders

You'll have to provide more details, and a full, detailed Arnold log.
Where is KtoA installed? What drive? How do you start Katana? If you use a launcher script, where is that script located? On what drive? What is in the launcher script? What do you see in the Arnold log?

You can find all the variables you need in README.txt File, where KatoA is installed.
You have to add these variable to your OS KTOA_ENABLE_DEPRECATED_SHADERS = 1 to get them all, otherwise only no deprecated are shown.
