I want to be able to render a template in the main 'templates' directory from within a plugin controller.
Basically the controller gets the url request, does some work and then renders a template saved in the 'craft/templates' directory instead of the 'plugin/templates' directory.
I have tried the plugin path trick mentioned on this page https://craftcms.com/docs/plugins/templates without any success.
Any ideas?

the paths to make sure they are pointing to where you think they are pointing? – Brad Bell Oct 24 '14 at 22:15
