Hello All,

I am trying to get Houdini to render with 3Delight but I get no output at all. I have 3Delight working fine with Blender so I know it is installed correctly and the environment variables are in place.

I have added renderman node to the output section and have chosen 3Delight 9.0. For the command line I have browsed to the location of renderdll.exe on my system. Under paths I have chosen the Default Path for shaders.

When I click the Render button in the RenderMan node, nothing seems to happen.

My RenderMan node is RED so there must be something wrong.

It's because you can't use RenderMan with Houdini Apprentice or Apprentice HD. You'll at least need Escape for that.

I figured this was in the Apprentice FAQ, but I guess not. It is on the feature chart here though. http://www.sidefx.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=589&Itemid=221 [sidefx.com]
