Just set the "Renderer:" field to "default" in the submit form,
and it will use the renderer the scene file was set to use.
So if the scene was set to use vray, that's what Maya will use
to render the scene if the job was submitted with "Renderer: default".
That goes for just about all the Maya plugin renderers.
That's all you should need. [NOTE: Some releases of the maya vray plugin
don't support this, in which case use the below]
If, however, you want to be able to /force/ Maya renders to use vray
even if the scene isn't set up to use it, and you have a submit-maya
script that doesn't have 'vray' in the Renderer: pulldown menu,
it's easy to add it; just find this (long) line in the submit-maya script:
Renderer: "default,maya(sw),mentalray(mr),mentalray-standalone(mi),mi-gen(mi),hardware(hw),vector(vr),renderman(rman),ribgen(rib),3Delight(3delight),maxwell(maxwell)" ?
..and add ",vray(vray)" to the end of this line before the closing quote.
For example:
BEFORE: Renderer: "default,maya(sw),mentalray(mr)......,3Delight(3delight),maxwell(maxwell)" ?
AFTER: Renderer: "default,maya(sw),mentalray(mr)......,3Delight(3delight),maxwell(maxwell),vray(vray)" ?
^^^^^^^^^^^
..that way 'vray' will be in the Renderer: pulldown so you can select it
to force the render to run with vray.
But it's much easier to just leave the submit form set to "default".
