Streamlined UI -RenderMan has been greatly simplified, and the interface for RenderMan for Maya has been redesigned accordingly. Finally any complex pattern can now be baked to a 2d or 3d texture using Pixar BakeTexture for later reuse, and there are more patterns to explore. The now essential Pixar MultiTexture lets you attach one shader to many surfaces, and have that shader behave uniquely on each of them. Use RenderManвЂ™s new Pixar Dirtpattern manipulate and blend textures to create many different looks, including dirt, dust, and patinas (leveraging ambient occlusion). Materials can also be browsed, created, and shared with the new Preset Browser in RenderMan for Maya, a helpful tool for managing shaders, lights, and textures.ДЄdvanced Patterns - Create new types of looks quickly with RenderManвЂ™s expanding suite of advanced patterns for real productions.

Pixar Surface Collection - The new library of physically based materials shipping with Pixar Surface makes it easy to dial in any type of material: plastics, metals, ceramics, rocks, liquids, and more.

This new library of physically based lights offers standard features like color temperature, exposure, and IES profiles вЂ¦ but also includes specialized Light Filters which have been developed for feature film in collaboration with PixarвЂ™s lighting TDs, allowing light to be quickly stylized in any number ways, offering a multitude of new creative possibilities.
