| Environment Variable | Default Installation Paths |
|---|---|
RMANTREE | /opt/pixar/RenderManProServer-2122.20 |
| /opt/pixar/RenderManForKatana-2122.20-katana2.26/plugins/Resources/PRMan21PRMan22 |
Default shader search paths for RenderMan match the default paths in the rendermn.ini file. If additional search paths are needed then you will need to set up the
RMAN_SHADERPATH and/or RMAN_RIXPLUGINPATH environment variables to include your specific paths....
| OSL | RMAN_SHADERPATH | options.searchpath.shader | $RMANTREE/lib/shaders |
| Plugin (C++) | RMAN_RIXPLUGINPATH | options.searchpath.rixplugin | $RMANTREE/lib/plugins |
If both the environment variable and the attribute are set the resulting search path will be the union of the two strings.
Args Files
The args files need to be in an Args directory. See the setup in RMANTREE/lib/plugins for an example. Something like this:
RMAN_RIXPLUGINPATH directory:
| _TAF_pattern_remap.so |
| _ Args/ |
| _TAF_pattern_remap.args |
You can find out more about Args files in the developer docs download.
