Hello, I just got the Maya and ZBrush Intergration and as all of the cds it is immensly helpful...but I am running into a problem when I try to render the displacement using the subdivision approxamation in mental ray....I get the error "can't export polymesh as a subdivision surface" when I try to render in mental ray...I have followed aall the steps in order over and over again...I tested everything on a plain polygon shpere and everything works fine...then when I try the model I am using...I get that error...so I am assuming its a problem with the mesh, but I have no idea how to fix it...any ideas?

forget it...figured it out...cleaned up geometry with selecting nonmanifold surfaces and it works fine now
