drUtilSuite_v101

[bart]

From Duiker Research, Haarm-Pieter Duiker is releasing this free set of utility shaders:

[edited to correspond to the latest, as mentioned in the post below]
http://www.duikerresearch.com/free/

A full set of utility shaders from which to build Phenomena.
Also contains mel scripts for smooth integration into Maya, ie nice shader categorizations, icons, etc.

This thread can be a place to discuss these shaders and how you are using them.

Hello,

Please use the download linked from

Hi,

Would be possible to get those shaders compiled for linux 64 bit?

Thanks.

Hello,

I don't have a 64 bit machine to work with right now, but will do so just as soon as I do.

In Maya 7, I'm getting the following error when loading the example scene lensBrightness_001.ma:

// Error: (mental ray) : failed to load library /media/data/toolset/mentalray/lib/drUtilShaders1.01.so (original name {LOCAL_BASE}/lib/drUtilShaders1.01.{DSO}): /media/data/toolset/mentalray/lib/drUtilShaders1.01.so: undefined symbol: _ZTVN3DRC13dCubicMappingE //

Specifically which OS?
