@Xxanimat0rX I had the same problem with my volume light. When i switched over to mental ray it worked.

You might need to load Mental Ray within your preferences if it doesn't automatically show up.

ok cool same here, ive been learing from digital tutors bundle and how old are you?

[jordana8899]

I have the same maya 2011 64x, but I can't see the "mental ray" rendering option in the drop-down menu!

Why is this happening to me. 

I'm so frustrated with this

[errortainment]

@jordana8899 same

[jordana8899]

@errortainment I stopped worrying about mental ray shit.  I was able to do some darn good quality pictures with the default Maya engine. I just used high resolution (10,000 or above)

[errortainment]

@jordana8899 also i cant see the selection band (u know when you want to select more than one vertex or face) any help?

[jordana8899]

@errortainment I have no idea what that is actually! I think you're way more experinced than I am.

P.S. -

I wonder why those stupid motherfucker at Lynda are not answering any of these questions? I'm gonna subscribe to Digital Tutor instead.

@jordana8899 lol how long u been using maya?

[jordana8899]

@errortainment Well, less than a year, but I know how to animate, and texture.
