Apparently it was released in 1988-1989, but wasn't included in Softimage until 1995-1996. I would like to know if anyone has had experience with mental ray or has any info on it pre-Softimage Extreme (1996)?
 
Yeah, I messed around with mental ray a bit before it hitched a ride on Softimage in '95. It's wild how it evolved.
