Installation requirements
The minimum requirements for running mental ray 3.6.51 are as follows:
Hardware requirements
To install and run mental ray 3.6.51, your workstation must have:
- (32-bit operating systems): Pentium® II or higher processor, 300 Mhz or greater
- (64-bit operating systems): Intel® processor with Intel® EM64T (Pentium® 4, Xeon™, Xeon MP) or AMD® processor with AMD64 (AMD Athlon™, AMD Opteron
- 256 MB or more available memory
- a network card
- a CD-ROM drive
- License server only: a hardware lock (dongle) and adapter cable
- License server only: an active and available serial port or USB port for the hardware lock
The mental ray licensing software (Software Protection Manager-SPM) and mental ray network rendering (rayserver) require open TCP ports on your machine in order to send and receive data across your network. By default, this data is sent on TCP ports 7050 and 7008.
If you choose to use TCP service ports other than 7050 and 7008 (for example, if your firewall blocks these ports), you must change the TCP service ports. You can change the port specification by using the Product Configuration Wizard, or by editing files on the license server machine and the client machines after software installation. See Configuring service ports using the Product Configuration Wizard and Editing service ports.
Other requirements
A web browser is required to view the online mental ray documentation (Start > Programs > Autodesk > mental ray 3.6.51 > Autodesk Mental Ray 3.6.51 > Documentation).
Disk space requirements
Minimum: 32 MB for mental ray 3.6.51.
