So i just discovered the karma rop. Is this as good as using the stage or are there major restrictions?
I am aware the stage provides lots more features for scene setup and layout. But if one just wants to render out quick tests is it the same.
Thanks

Yep, it's basically the same. If you actually dive inside the ROP you'll discover a LOPNet. Certain Solaris features, aren't available without "hacking" the ROP, which is quite possible to do.
I use the Karma ROP for quick and final renders

It's useful as a stepping stone coming from Mantra, and the LOP network inside helped me understand the basics of Solaris and USD, but you'll hit obstacles pretty soon if you don't customize it, especially if you're rendering volumes.
What kind of issues with volumes I was planning to render volumes with it.
