Fix Maya Quixel Bridge Plugin Problems - Change Render Engine - Arnold/Redshift/Vray

This should solve some Issues a lot of people seem to have when working with Maya and trying to use Quixel Bridge. I assume this goes for Houdini, Blender, Cinema4d and so on as well, not tested yet however.
I'll be trying Houdini in a couple of days.

I uninstalled Quixel Bridge and deleted my Megascans Folder (250gb) that I had used with Unreal before, maybe this might help you as well, but I think you can skip that part.

Make sure Maya is closed during Installation.

omg this worked!! thank you so much, never really used the command prompt window at all so the instructions were a bit hard for me but i got the hang of it eventually!

[johnseventine_vfx]

Thank you bro but thats a shame i've stopped using that tool for years

[grandma]

did all that, but when I went to reinstall the plugin, , , it installs as an unknown / unsupported file type in modules folder and doesnt appear under Maya 2022 / Modules folder... cause such a file doesnt even exist.

[vincentsackey]

where did you downloaded your redshift plugin for maya 2023

The custom installation explanation tells you to modify a .mod file, and there is NO mods file anywhere. I guess you can create your own, but it's extrange it desn't even exist

[bunsellastudios]

thank you muchly - I did not have pymel

[GennaiosFX]

does anyone know how to scale a texture imported from bridge to a model in maya?

I installed Pymel and now Maya doesnt open anymore ):

[spaceidiot]
