Whether on our cloud or self-hosted, create the internal software your team needs without compromising enterprise standards or control.
RIB Mosaic is aimed at providing a complete RenderMan(TM) development environment for Blender. It provides tools for developers to create and distribute artist friendly GUI's that control custom RIB export. This makes it easy to use Blender with any RenderMan(TM) compliant renderer or render specific feature.
Liquid is a tool for translating Maya scenes into another renderer's scene description. Various RenderMan-compliant renderers are supported. For more information please see the project homepage.
RenderMan(R) Interface Bytestream (RIB) ASCII major mode for Emacs-based text editors. Adds configurable syntax highlighting and indentation to your text editing experience. RenderMan(R) is a registered trademark of Pixar.
Pixie is a photorealistic renderer that uses a RenderMan-like interface. Features include programmable shading, motion blur, depth of field, raytracing, scan-line rendering, occlusion culling, global illumination, caustics ...
The Scientific Visualization Artist Tools (SVAT) include converters from the Visualization Toolkit (VTK) to RenderMan Interface Bytestream (RIB) (ASCII and binary files supported), Blender to RenderMan, compilable RenderMan shaders and other utilities.
Freestyle is a software for Non-Photorealistic Line Drawing rendering from 3D scenes. Inspired by Pixar's Renderman, it is designed as a programmable interface to allow maximum control over the style of the output image.
Tool kit to use with RenderMan(R) compatible renderers. Include Blender->RIB exporter, shader editor, procedural geometry generators and other useful tools.
Affogato is a plugin for Avid's Softimage XSI 3D animation package. It links XSI with high-end 3D renderers. It allows a great level of customization to fit into contemporary VFX pipelines. Currently Affogato only supports RenderMan-compliant renderers.
Render Passes for Maya plugin - adds multi-pass rendering capability to Maya versions earlier than v7.0, and can work alongside Maya v7.0+'s Render Layers to provide additional functionality (such as passes for RenderMan and other renderers)
l2rib is a utility for converting Lego LDraw models for use in a RenderMan compliant renderer. In other words, it reads .DAT files, and writes RIB files which can then be rendered by renderers such as Pixar's PhotoRealistic RenderMan.
JPatch is a 3D Modelling/Animation tool designed to model and animate "organic" shapes such as humans, animals, aliens, etc. It's written in Java and outputs to POV-Ray and RenderMAN format (e.g. Aqsis).
