Re: Mental ray and raytrace help
You should read the documentation, instructions on how to take full advantage of all of mental rays capabilities can't be explained in a post.

If you just want to use Mental ray instead of ScanLine just open the Rendering screen (F10)
then go to the bottom where there is a bar labled "Assign Renderer" click it and some more options will appear

There should be a lable that says Production and next to it will say "Default Scanline renderer" click the button to the right and choose mental ray.


this will turn on mental ray as your renderer, but in order to actually get good quality renders you need to take advantage of other things like GI ... which I could explain but It is all well documented so you should just read up on it.
