Maya Scene Converter is a python-based Qt tool for converting scenes from a render engine to another in Maya, it is not a perfect conversion and it depends on rules files and how good they are but gives you a great head start.
- Creates rules to convert from a source render engine to a target render engine
- Easy UI to create, save and load the rules
- Supports all shading related nodes: Materials,Textures,Utilities and Lights
- Converts all the scene or selected objects
- Scans the scene for any node or only what belongs to the source engine
- Some ready examples of rules files (not very precise but very functional)
- Prints info about all conversions
- Tested with Windows only but could work on other operating systems
- Tested with Maya 2018+ but could work on previous versions
