For those using the 18.0 (beta) of Houdini, the key feature is the new support for the RenderMan delegate in Solaris. In addition to the RenderMan Hydra delegate Delegate support with v23, RenderMan for Houdini also offers additional interactive display options, batch rendering options, RenderMan specific geometry settings, and additional advanced settings for light sources when using Solaris.
| Note |
|---|
The RenderMan 23 RenderMan .0 Hydra Delegate for Solaris will not immediately be available immediately with the our supported version of RenderMan for Houdini compiled against Houdini 18.0.268. Solaris support for the RenderMan 23.0 Hydra Delegate will come soon in a later daily version build of Houdini 18.0 and we will update our supported version of RenderMan For Houdini 18.0 to match that daily build when the 23.0 Hydra delegate becomes available in this future version of Houdini 18.0 |
INTERACTIVE OPTION EDITS
You can render through even more stages of your pipeline. RenderMan options on the ROP that previously required a render restart to take affect are now interactive. These options include resolution, pixel variance, screen window, min and max samples, and new interactive refinement. In addition you can add, remove, and edit AOVs live.
