Interactive/Live Rendering Limitations

• Crop window edits are restricted to fall inside the original crop window

RenderMan Pro Server Limitations

• PxrUnified integrator does not yet support all the standard rendering features
• Meshlights cannot be instanced
• We do not read point data from OpenVDB files
• PxrSurface back diffuse color is not output to the albedo color AOV
• Analytical lights placed inside volumes may yield artifacts when made visible to the camera. As a work around, the light camera visibility should be turned off, and a geometry with a similar shape should be used (visible to camera, invisible to transmission and indirect rays), with the proper emissive bxdf
• Using the ' . ' character in the handle for an OSL shader could cause unpredictable results during re-rendering
• Per-Instance baking is not supported, only the reference instance
• 3d baking: no direct bake-to-ptex support
• PxrBakePointCloud cannot directly render ptex
• Sample/Display filter plug-ins do not have access to lighting services for light dependent effects, e.g. lens flare
• Adding new mesh light on existing geometry during IPR results in double geometry
• Motion blurred polygons do not motion blur normals when deformed. Use Subdivision meshes instead
• When attempting to access an array primvar, you must first check the size of the array primvar and allocate the appropriate space. Not doing so may lead to a crash
• Points and curves cannot be used as geometric (mesh) lights

• Deformation motion blurred volumes don't currently work with densityFloatPrimVar or densityColorPrimVar. You will need to use a PxrPrimVar node connected to densityFloat and densityColor instead

  Note
  The Centos KDE style "Oxygen" installs a version of Qt and sets the user's environment variable QT_PLUGIN_PATH forcing "it" and LocalQueue to attempt to load an incompatible Qt library. Either avoid installing the Oxygen theme or unset QT_PLUGIN_PATH before running "it" or LocalQueue. Other KDE styles may also install this theme.
