Contact the Vray for maya team.
Or am I missing some kind of central point?
Yes its not maya, its Vray. They dont nesserily implement all the features of maya. And whan they do they certainly dont do it exactly like IN maya.* This si both in good and bad.
There are allways all kinds of inconsistensies between different applications, even with the same application theres incosistence between different parst and so on. You just can't avoid this, or well atleast we havent come up with any technology that HAS.
- programmers are ususlly not skilled in the software they implement things into, since data needs to be exported in some ways it stand s to reason some features will not work as youd natively expect. Same thing happens all the time with mentalray too, theres lots of connections that maya software understands thet mentalray does not. Anyway this stands to reason 2 differnt things will never be the same.
For example you can shade stuff in maya software based on proximity to one other surface with closest point on surfece connected to sampler info. But this does NOT work in mentalray, becasue it does not implement maya. Just rendering.
