It’s a relatively simple thing to do, but to get to edge midpoints, there’s a few context hoops to jump through:
I guess I could most of the context conflicts by putting the ICE tree on the mesh and storing the midpoints there.
And now, let’s get the midpoint of the first edge only. All the Show Values are there to prove that it works.

As Arnold standins…
The Arnold procedural node can load Arnold Scene Source (ASS), Wavefront Obj (OBJ, OBJ.GZ), and Stanford Geometry (PLY), as well as DLLs/SOs.

Up until late 2008, Softimage wasn’t the name of a software product. It was a company with its own unique history, culture, and mythology. For many of us who worked there, it was a special time and place, and a lot of it happened in this building in Montreal.

None, not for the render farm itself. You just need Arnold licenses for the render nodes. You need Softimage licenses for artist workstations; on the render nodes, you’ll be using xsibatch -processing -render to render (and -processing doesn’t take a Batch license for third-party renderers).
You wouldn’t need Maya Batch licenses for Arnold render nodes either. The Maya render/mayabatch command line tools won’t take a Batch license for third-party renderers either.
Take a default 8×8 grid. Extrude one polygon four units. Extrude four adjacent polys two units. Add an Attribute display property for the Volume.
