Hi folks,
I was trying to render a PaintEffect daisy using mental ray, but for
some reason the daisy is not visible after it's rendered. It does
however, render fine in Maya Software. Is it possible to render
PaintEffects in mental ray? If so how?

Thanks!

In order to render Paint Effects in Mental Ray, you must first convert
your paint effects strokes to polys. You can do this by selecting your
stroke and going to
Modify > Convert > Paint Effects to Polygons

Textures and animation data from the paint effects strokes are carried
over to the poly mesh.
