Renderman 21

Interesting, and pricing is very much up there with Redshift.
And the GPU Denoising sounds really interesting, especially as a Arnold user ;)

It looks great, and it seems like they are shipping their actual production/movie shaders along too, which I believe was not the case with earlier versions...I could be mistaken though.

The IES lights are from my personal collection, woot! I was contacted about inclusion with the updated Renderman release.

However, I was contacted by a few other renderer developers and said "sure" to them all... so not an exclusive set of IES lights, anyone can download them from my site from this blog entry http://www.derekjenson.com/3d-blog/ies-light-profiles

Funny, I gave all the light profiles "descriptive" names and it seems Pixar kept those names. See here https://renderman.pixar.com/view/DP25764

They were used in Softimage first! :D
