Wie mir Bobby Parker von der Blender Foundation gerade in einer Email geschrieben hat, funktioniert die RenderMan®- Unterstützung in Blender bereits. Sogar Shader-Previews sind implementiert (s. o.).

Zitat:

"Aqsis(and for that matter, any other Renderman renderer) can be used from Blender right now. There's no animation support since I have that disable[d] while I work through problems with NURBS and other things, but once I have that (this month sometime), animation support will be online with nice things like motion blur, animatable DOF, etc.

Material previews are a reality. In truth, that's the very first thing I made work, since having strong material support was important to me. The Neqsus system generates previews and then loads them into Blender for display via the UI library that I wrote." — Bobby Parker
