Comment: Library of supported Softimage and Mental Ray shaders added

Overview

3Delight for Softimage automatically converts Softimage’s render trees (including compounds) into RenderMan shaders and compiles them on the fly. All textures are converted (if needed) into 3Delight’s mip-mapped and tiled TIFF format for efficient rendering and filtering. Material clusters, vertex colors, implicit and explicit projections are all supported. The following material slots are recognized:

...

Info

This means that Softimage, in conjunction with 3Delight for Softimage, can be used as a RenderMan shaders authoring tool.

Library of supported Softimage and Mental Ray shaders

All the common Softimage nodes are supported and a large set of useful Mental Ray materials is also supported.

Info

3Delight for Softimage support Softimage's Render Tree network; it automatically converts  (at the start of the rendering process) Render Tree networks into RenderMan shaders and that are used by 3Delight to render the image.


Follows a list of all these supported nodes, in alphabetical order.
