This example shows how to import a proxy material into Maya using Import from File. The V-Ray material is created in 3ds Max and the scene is exported using the V-Ray Scene Exporter. The scene is then imported into Maya, by using VRay's Import from File Image Removed Image Addedfunction and locating the exported scene. V-Ray imports the material into Maya and it is available for editing.
