Renderman Opacity and Transparent shaders

I'm paying anyone who can create a transparent shader to simulate transparent and opaque renderman shaders.

I will attach an image showing the three shaders I want.

In RenderMan (Blender) where are the basic camera controls to affect the lighting

Hello!! How can I modify the exposure on each camera in Renderman? “Shutter speed” and “Fstop” only affect the depth of field and motion blur, but do not modify the lighting. I need to have each camera with its own exposure settings. Typical in any engine like V-Ray, Corona…

Issues Loading Renderman into Maya?

Hi! I am using an educational license for Maya and have been using Renderman at school. I wanted to use it at home but am having trouble loading it in. Renderman says the download is successful and has been installed but I do not see it in my Plugin Manager 😔. Any ideas on how to fix that? Also I am using a Mac, I don’t know if that causes any issues.

RfH 2D Vector Motion AOV (H19.5, RenderMan 25)

Hi I want to use AOV motion vector for compositing later, how can I do that ?

Follow a Maya tutorial on RenderMan 22, it is tick check box `2D Motion Blur` under `Allow Motion Blur` feature. Then add AOV `dPdtime`

The AOV, it's black for me, my scene is simple a sphere translate by 1 axis in 30 seconds. What is the solution ?

Renderman on Maya texture issue

Hello, I have a problem rendering my displace and bump map texture.

I have 2 udims on my character but I don't know why we can see a line between the 2 udims (the line near the neck).

Moreover, the texture isn't rendering good on my character (no displace on the face) while it's seems to work well on a plane.

Does anyone have a solution to that please ? It's quite urgent 😓

Beginner Question: Rendering a single frame in Maya?

I have viewed tutorials on how to render an animation, but how does one render just a single frame? I am modeling an environment with no camera movement or animation involved.

I have an car rigged and simed with proxy and then linked the basic process. I made my shaders all my stuff and add noise and scratch with curvature and dirt but here it is : my noise is « swimming » . I seen on forums and in the docs how to fix it. Create rest attrib, rename it in renderman tab with rename attrib, Add mapping element, rename Rest to Pr : vertex point. Then adding manifold with in the Pref parameter : Pr but still not working. Texture still swimming. I’m about to render and add the dirt layers in comp but would like to achieve to fix it !

Thanks you for your help, I’ll update this post if I figure it out by myself.

Lama vs Pixar

Are there any benefits to using Lama over Pixar shading right now? Is it faster in some way?
