I had made a water material with bump in studio, and when I try to import it into C4D and load it with the custom MXM tag, the render fails. When I go back into Studio and take out the bump and reload it in C4D, its works fine, is this a known problem with the Custom MXM tag or am I doing something wrong?

What do you mean with 'it fails' ?

Isn't it rendering at all?
Is just the mxm material left out and the default material active?
Is the material just black or white?

Morgan, are you on a Mac? The custom mxm tag doesn't seem to work there...

Sorry i didn't specify, I'm not on a mac and when I said that the render failed I mean it didn't render, it just said in the maxwell viewer "Render Failed"

The MXM tag doesn't work unless you also have a regular Cinema material tag on your object. IMO that's a bug.

Actually I don't think that it's really a bug, it's more some kind of limitation:
The material tag sets the texture projection, and it seems that the Maxwell
material takes that from the Material tag - I'm just guessing here...
