Hey

Renderman kicks ass!!

But what's up with psd's?

Has anyone used the psd network or any psd as a shader successfully with Renderman?

thanks

I have renderman for maya 1.0. Do you know if renderman for maya 1.1 can use psd's?

I would guess it's not supported. Besides you should use TIFFs for Renderman. I am actually not sure if PSDs is Maya support layers, but you'd get the same image quality from a TIFF as you would a PSD.

But then again I really don't make shader networks in Maya much anymore as I am mostly into RSL. But I do love Maya's shader system.
