More RenderMan to Mental Ray questions

More RenderMan to Mental Ray questions

2004-12-22       - By lpiasecki76

Since I have 2 unread RenderMan books and I don't have RenderMan, I thought
that it would be good to port any shader for Renderman I see out there to
Mental Ray. The problem is that the shading language is a bit different for
the two. I wonder if anyone has a list of Mental Ray equivalents of
RenderMan functions/constants/variables ?



Thank you,

Luke
