You might want to look into Affogato:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/affogato/
I have never used it, and from what I understand it is not as slick and
well integrated/interactive as the other solutions we are accepting as
standard these days. Dpending on project complexity it might still be
worth a look, or you go with 3Delight directly, which is very
Renderman-like and free for the first license per user afaik.
Hi Folks
One of our students is very interested in looking at using the new
renderman that¹s been slated for release just after SIGGRAPH.
Now currently they are our last batch that will be using Softimage. So we
have a few choices
1) We light and render purely in Maya which will allows us to in theory
move straight from Soft->Maya
2) We find a way to export out of softimage into a format Renderman
Server
can handle. ( I am assuming some form of RIB file) Possibly exported from
3Delight ?
Are their any folks that make use of render man from softimage that can
suggest the best way to look at doing things.
Kind regards
Angus
