MtI v1.0.9 Stable (updated 17th April 2008)

The icons and render direct didn't work for me either. Sorry, I should have said that first
The render direct seems to be something to do with the linux native build - it worked OK whn calling through wine. I haven't had time to investigate why it's different yet. Running the generated mti_*_run.sh script manually launches the render fine, perhaps MtI just isn't calling the script properly.
As for the icons, I've no idea. It might have something to do with XBMLANGPATH in Maya.env, but I can't check right now what I have it set to.

MtI always generates .sh under linux and .bat under windows.
The .sh for wine is not the same as the .bat for windows.
If you really want to understand the differences, it's probably easier for you just to read mti_Gen.mel, near the bottom
Each of the different operating system cases and the code generated by each is laid out in this proc.

ok, that's interesting.
can you run the following MEL command and tell me it's output?
EDIT: are you running Maya under Wine ?

Well, that's what it should be. Are you sure it's creating .bat files and that they're not from an older version?
There are no .bat files on my linux64 setup.
This evening I have been creating an installer for MtI for windows.
It's actually kinda complex - the next step should be to build a script for linux that does the same. Now that I've worked out the logic in the windows installer, making the linux one behave the same shouldn't be a problem (actually I think that linux has some better tools, especially for some of the file search&replace functions that are necessary).
I've got 1 remaining issue to sort out with the installer, then I'll post it up here for people to test.

note to self:
this looks like a good idea for the linux installer - http://www.linuxjournal.com/node/1005818
