final render for maya

hello !

because we use final render for maya a lot, i tried to create a template for it. i took a template from renderman and changed flags and stuff but it don’t seems to work. here is the log-file:

[MUSTER]Spawning process C:ProgrammeAliasMaya7.0binrender.exe inside C:ProgrammeAliasMaya7.0bin using the following command line flags:

if i type in the command muster seems to use manually in the commandline everything is ok and rendering… (C:ProgrammeAliasMaya7.0binrender.exe -r fr -rd “\Operator-10DataMusterTestimagesMusterFR” -proj “\Operator-10DataMusterTest” -s 21.000 -e 24.000 -b 1.000 -rfs 21 -rfb 1 -pad 3 “\Operator-10DataMusterTestscenesmusterTest.mb”)

also when i type: mayabatch -command finalRender -file “…” everything is ok in the commandline.

we also use newer maya versions but without the final render plugin, and if i don’t specify the maya7.0 mayabatch.exe but the one for maya2008 (by default) then it says: Error: Cannot find procedure “finalRender”.

but the error-log says its using the maya7.0 mayabatch.exe so i really can’t figure out what went wrong…

thx in advance
