Re: Good Books

Hey guys, make sure to post your mental ray questions in these mental ray forums, they are all set up to support our new sister site Welcome to Mr Materials! when we finally go public with it. The afore mentioned Jeff Patton is on board to help create the site and it will be a site dedicated to mental ray resources.

P.S. That is why I haven't been around much, swamped with the studio and this new project
