This is off-topic, but I wonder why you don't use G - X,Y,Z shortcuts.

Thats because he uses various software and almost every software requires you to move objects with arrow while blender is the only exception that provides you with the shortcut to move objects

[@itsthatYEStoogoodguy]

Wait we are talking about speed or quality here?

[@kappilino]

Renderman is a very cool and fast Renderer. I used it a lot with maya. But i don‘t understand why it was only released for Blender 2.92. I understand why pixar don‘t want to develope a new version for every blender version. But i think the better solution would be, to release a new version for every Blender LTS Version. And this is 2.93. Than, one can stay at a supported version of blender with renderman forever. Currently, the only way to use Renderman with blender is to use an outdated version of blender or an, in my opinion, too old version, even if 2.83 is an LTS version.

[@sharath2273]

The reason rfb doesn't support 2.93 is because of the decision made by blender to jump ahead of the industry and use python 3.9, while everyone else is still using 3.7 (and 3.9 becomes a standard only next year). You probably need to wait for then for blender 2.93 support.

You have to resubscribe every like 3 months. You do a survey after 3 months (not sure if it's required, most likely it is but either way it's for them to get knowledge on how to improve it for the users) But yes, it's free because Pixar believes it's a long term investment to get people knowledgeable of the software. In return, all they ask is a simple survey every 90 days. For however long you like

[@HenryKillian]

Hi AskNK Love your work. Btw are you Jamaican?

[@raw_pc]

Renderman is a great renderer but it's not the easiest in terms of creating materials or how the interface options are layed out. I'm comparing it to other renderers like redshift, v-ray, corona, octane, cycles. It's dependent on the software you are using it in. In Blender it could get few improvements for sure. If you don't have to use Renderman specifically I would go with Cycles or Octane while creating in Blender.

[@joaovitordossantos9949]

i like the caustics might give it a try

[@itsthatYEStoogoodguy]

Finally blender have a proper renderer now.

[@layo_cg]

Good video!, very informative!

[@kimteam5344]

VERY POWERFUL RENDERER!!

[@AngryApple]

Just a note: Cycles can also use CPU and the GPI at the same time.

[@YGODueltainer]

Cycles only do hybrid when you hit render, otherwise it's running either cpu or GPU in viewport. Btw the reason renderman is strictly cpu because the engine was clearly designed to work with a sever farm. And we all know sever farm favors cores quantity over quality.

[@JeremyWeed]

When I try to render it says "Can't find valid Renderman License, Aborting." What could be causing this? I installed both the addon and the license, I imagine the issue is they're not linking.
