RenderMan 19 now includes all the components of the old RenderMan Studio with the exception of Pixar Tractor, its batch rendering tool. Rhino, modo, LightWave, and Blender are not supported but there are discussions circulating about support for RenderMan. And CentOS/RHEL 5.4 to be precise.Ĭurrently third-party support for RenderMan 19 is underway for Maxon’s CINEMA 4D, Houdini by Side Effects Software, and Autodesk 3ds Max.

RenderMan 19 works on Mac OS X, Linux and Windows for Autodesk Maya. RenderMan 19 bridge compatibility works across Autodesk Maya and The Foundry’s KATANA and are fully supported by Pixar. More licensing information can be found here. Pixar Tractor licenses are 100.USD per seat. The price per seat is 495.USD per license.

RenderMan 19 is newly packaged with respect to the various versions before, like RenderMan Pro Server. Here is a capture from a video showing it in action in Maya. There is a FAQ for further information.Ġ2 – Primarily today RenderMan runs inside the Autodesk Maya workflow but is also a plugin for KATANA. Examples of non-commercial use include evaluations, personal learning, experimentation, research, and the development of tools and plugins for RenderMan. Importantly in the new RenderMan 19 is the new free Non-Commercial RenderMan to be released in early 2015. There are other key improvements too, including Geometric Area Lights, Gobos, Emissive Geometry, Camera Projections and many other key items like Adaptive Sampling and a Daylight Simulator. Shader Libraries-RenderMan 19 ships with advanced shader libraries for creating a wide range of physically accurate looks and they all benefit from RIS.Open Standards-Pixar has committed to developing and adopting standards for animation and visual effects including popular open standards like: Alembic, OpenColorIO, OpenEXR, OpenSubdiv, OSL, RSL, SeExpr and others….Ray Traced Subsurface Scattering-the results of cutting edge research at Disney Research Zurich (ETH), Switzerland.Global Illumination Sampler-pools light samples for all sources in the scene, thus dramatically increasing the number of lights that can be used at any given time.Light Transport & Integrators-Integrators take camera rays and return shaded results to the renderer, plus API for custom integrators.
Progressive Rendering with Image Check-Pointing-in the first pass of a progressive render all the scene elements are rendered and allow incremental feedback for an entire frame all at once.RIS-this new trace rays rendering system is completely written in C++ for both speed and memory efficiency when rendering multi-bounce global illumination (GI) for complex production scenes.

Along with enhancement to their efficient REYES render mode, RenderMan 19 offers what the world leader in movie CG animation says is the most “flexible, powerful and reliable tool for rendering cinematic imagery.” Pixar says this leap in technology offers best-of-class in rendering for both VFX and feature film animation. Version 19 offers super new features and technology and is aiming to be more accessible than ever before, with tie-ins to Cinema 4D, Blender, Lightwave and others (courtesy of Pixar/Disney) 01 – A partial screen grab from the RenderMan website.
