If not for rendering pics by making a "patch work", then at least for getting a clue as to how parts of the scene will look in a final render.

So we are thinking of two different things, as the newly released mental ray does not support the IPR feature.
"Render Region/Resolution Settings - mental ray renders now respect the Render Region or Test Resolution settings in Maya's Render View."
Quoting from mental ray manual, about things that was fixed.

In XSI, its equivalent to IPR is called Render Region - thats why i was askingOriginally posted by undseth
InteractivePhotorealisticRender (IPR) is not the same as "render region" as far as I know.
So we are thinking of two different things, as the newly released mental ray does not support the IPR feature.

I've already noticed there are a lot of things that are not accepted in Mental Ray. A had to change all my .ps textures to .jpg just so Mental Ray would render. All in all though, I can't wait to get further into Mental Ray. It's only a 13 MB download, so you should be able to use it soon enough.
Long live Maya on the MAC!
