Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

Mental Ray Glass and Fluid
I am having difficulties rendering a fluid effect through a mental ray thin glass preset. I have ensured that the fluid is visible under render stats for reflections and refractions but still it will not render.
Here is an example with a glass plane in front of a cube and a fluid effect. You can see the cube through the galss plane but not the fluid effect. This works with maya renderer and maya materials.
Has anybody any ideas as to what simple thing in Mental Ray that I have bound to have missed?
Many many thanks
Nick
