you can just edit houdini.env to add those variables
in my win64 I just added following:
RMANTREE=“cProgram Files/Pixar/RenderManProServer-20.3”
PATH=$PATH;$RMANTREE/bin
HOUDINI_DEFAULT_RIB_RENDERER=prman20.3

Hi Tamte,

i did put the paths in the correct file although when i render it comes out all completly black, i did also create a light, but there seems to be no way for me to visualize anything, the alpha channel tho seems to show the geometry underneath..did i miss something?
Mantra works fine..
