RenderMan 20.7 for Houdini 15

Welcome to RenderMan 20.7 for Houdini 15

RenderMan 20.7 for Houdini 15 makes improvements and fixes to the last release of RenderMan 20.

  • Important

    Be sure and consult the release documents for RenderMan 20.7 regarding changes to volume rendering and LM Materials.

Miscellaneous Changes

  • Important

    In using the new volume rendering changes, you should consider increasing your shading rate on volumes. This will provide you with improved memory usage as well as speed. Existing scenes may render more slowly than before and with much greater memory usage without a change to the local ShadingRate.

Fixed
  • OpenVDB has been updated to version 3.1.0 and should be backwards compatible with previous version 2.1.0

Bug Fixes

  • LM Materials may render differently due to a fix, you can find an example on the release notes for RenderMan 20.7
