Hi Guys,
I know Maya 5 is an old version but it's the version I own (and can't afford to upgrade).
Will I be able install mti etc. on maya 5? (I'm not on my workstation at the moment which has maya5 installed otherwise I'd try it myself)
Also, reading this maya subforum, it's a bit confsing to me, is there just one maya exporter (mayatoindigo) that needs installing or is there a material editing gui as well? (some people seem to refer to the exporter by different names)
Thanks in advance guys.
Cheers,

Is there an exporter for Maya5 ?
Welcome Bliz !
MtI was essentially rewritten well after Maya 6 was out, so it was not tested on Maya 5, not that I know. The python plugin will not work, that's for sure, but you still might use Maya materials. Could possibly work.
The material editor is to be included with the exporter in a future release, but can be downloaded in a beta version. As far as Maya is concerned there is MtI or MayatoIndigo wich are two names for the same exporter. I was prefering "Maydigo"... anyway.
Amazing reel btw !

Yeah. As far as they have not changed essential stuff to MEL, there's a good chance that at least the exporter will work. Just install MtI without the plugin and use the maya blinn, lambert and phong nodes.
I'm sure I'll find my Maya 5 somewhere on the attic or cellar, but I don't have time to test it.
