Strange Color Interpretation From Maya Renders

[user_deleted]

Hey gang -

I'm a bit stumped at why nuke is interpreting the color differently than other viewers. A maya render (tif format) that looks normal in fcheck is completely different in Nuke v4.0.78 and the new demo version. So, pretty sure it's not version related, must be render related. I've attached a tif of an ambient occlusion pass that looks fine in fcheck, but not nuke. Any ideas would be awesome!

Ambient Occlusion Pass

without having looked at the images:
check your color space settings in nuke's read nodes.
if your maya renders are true linear set it to linear in Nuke as well, I think the default for tiffs is sRGB which would cause such a descrepancy.

also be aware of the fact that by default nuke is applying an sRGB look up to the viewer (check the settings pannel's LUT tab). Depending on your color workflow you may not want this.

cheers,
frank

I think it is a color space confusion on my part between the two apps. If I output an exr from MR everything is fine. Thanks for your help!
