Render Presets

This script creates a some VRay render presets that I normally use and saves them in your preferences.

To Run: Just run the script. The presets will be saved in your Maya presets folder. To load a preset just go to your Render Settings Window> Presets> Load Presets and they should all be listed there.

#Vray Render Presets for Maya version 1.0.0
#Should work with up to Vray 2.4 haven't gotten access to a later version to test
#Bryanna London www.bryannalondon.com
#!/usr/bin/env python

#Sets some render presets and all you have to do is run the script.
#Then go to Render Settings>Presets>Load Presets and they should all be saved there.
