Flame OpenCL simulation was created by Tighe Rzankowski from SideFx.  Shaded/Lit by Chu Tang using RenderMan's PxrVolume Bxdf.

 

Note

To render with RenderMan inside Houdini, we do require the installation of RenderMan Pro Server, the renderer itself. See Installation and Licensing for more information.

 

More information can be found in the Houdini Documentation regarding RenderMan, the descriptions for Reyes and RSL are no longer valid

.


To complete the setup you should follow the directions for Environment Variables.

 

WarningRenderMan 21 operates purely on the modern RIS ray tracing system. The Reyes rendering techniques and the RenderMan Shading Language (RSL) are deprecated and unavailable in modern RenderMan
