Hello,

Is there a way to import curve Cd to Maya vray? I've tried to promote Cd from point to vertex in Houdini, and connected the output with vrayVertex color node in maya, which works for importing geo. With curve, I can see the colorSet output in maya, but there is no submenu for colorSet/colorName. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

I know this is a very old thread, but wondering if anyone had found a solution to this at all?

Getting the Cd attribute into Maya onto a piece of geometry is fine, but doesn't seem to work for curves.

In Maya I see Cd(RGBA) in the Color Set Editor for geometry, but nothing for any selected curves.

I found a way.

It doesn't show on the viewport like when using polygons, but the attribute still there.
The only thing you have to do is to connect a "UserDataColor" (will depend of your render engine) on Hypershape on Maya and type the custom attribute name exported from Houdini.

Note: The attribute must be a vertex attribute.
