RENDERMAN FOR LIGHTWAVE



UPDATED: Some facts about the LiRis project:
- RenderMan/RIS plugin for LightWave3D is a personal project to support the Pixar new RIS rendering technology inside the LighWave3D Layout application using the same external render technology used by the Arnold and Octane plugins.
- It is designed to support the new RenderMan/RIS technology, not the old "scanline" RenderMan.
- The plugin is going to be released as commercial product along 2015. Commercial details and prices are not decided yet. Demo and perhaps non commercial plugins are also scheduled to be released along 2015.
- The plugin is currently under development, and there aren't beta or demo versions yet.


Yeah, Renderman for LW is coming. Thanks, Juanjo González

Pues sí, RENDERMAN en camino. Gracias Juanjo González
