Thanks for the uput. When you say the command line/script ...Do you mean the console window.

If so... when you render an image from Maya that has an incorrectly assigned path to a bitmap for a sahder the olnly message you get in the MXCL console is "bitmap not found." It does not tell you which one. you have to go back to maya and find which file out of all your shaders does not have the correct path. (is there another window I am missing that shows which ones are not linked?)

Many thanks

Peter
