MEL + Shading Group Error

Posted in: Maya

Hi Folks,

Am a beginner in MEL. Recently I came across a video tutorial which am referring to learn MEL. Here’s the code –>

Code:

//- some code goes before this..


// create shading nodes

shadingNode -asShader lambert -n "petalColor";

shadingNode -asTexture ramp -n "petalRamp";
// shading group is connected via Sets

sets -renderable true -noSurfaceShader false

        -empty -n petalColorSG;
// Connect to color attribute

connectAttr -f petalColor.outColor petalColorSG.sufaceShader;

connectAttr petalRamp.outColor petalColor.color;

//- some code goes after this..

this is the error am getting after running the script :

// Error: The destination attribute ‘petalColorSG.sufaceShader’ cannot be found.

I have petalColor created in Material Editor & petalColorSG created in Shading group editor.

What could be the problem guys? :confused:

Thanks in advance.
