Hello Mike,
I just checked all of codes and couldn’t see any problem.
So I need more info about your problem. What is your Maya version exactly, 2011.5 is a Sucspcription pack for MacOS. right?
Hey there …
I tried installing the script on my maya 2011 Subscription Advantage Pack 64Bit,
I installed it in the MyDocuments – maya – 2011.5 64x – scripts
But when i run the mel script (fxfx_maya_real_studio_2.mel) and press ctr+Enter
i get the following msg (// Error: Cannot find procedure “fxfx_maya_real_studio_2.mel”. // )
i even tried running the other command (Fxfx_Maya_Real_Studio_Setup_1_0.mel) which is in your ReadMe file i got the same msg

Caneration… very thanks !!!
I´m searching this post two hours, thnaks
Thanks for that, seems super!
However I get stuck in the set render settings to high quality, I can still set them myself and get a nice render but I was wondering what yours were, I try opening the render setting and leaving it on quality with no success, still getting an error.
Hello Duderstein,
In Maya 2010 and 2011, you should open render settings and click Quailty tab.
Autodesk disabled the loading of render setting tabs on render engine startup.
So you should open render settings and open tabs (For example Quailty tab) manually. And again then press 8-High Quailty Render Settings again.
It will setup the quailty settings.
Thats all..
Keep your eyes on FXFX,
Thanks,
Caner

Hello Caner, belive me ur script rocks! so helphfulllllll thankyou
Hey dude thanks a lot, but i cant get this to work, i have the same “// Error: Cannot find procedure “mrUse”. // “, i’m on maya 2009 on mac os x
Hi Caneration, I would love to use this script but in Maya 2011.5 (subscription advantage pack) when executing the script I also get //Error:Cannot find procedure “mrUse”.
AH HA!! I have found the problem to the mrUse issue. You MUST clear the script editor and also DO NOT use “source script” instead use “LOAD SCRIPT” and then use “EXECUTE”.
It works just fine after that. Awesome, I hope ive helped a few people with this.
Hi Im having toruble loading script everytime i try im getting invalid syntax error
