Hi, I'm fairly new to Houdini (I previously mostly used Maya), I have Houdini Apprentice and am considering upgrading to Houdini Indie, but just had some questions.

Primarily, I'm interested at the moment in creating VR experiences, but I'm worried about the limited render resolution of Mantra in Houdini Indie.

I'm just wondering if there are any ways around this, for example, does the 1080p limit also apply if using a third party render plugin such as Renderman or V-Ray? Or is it possible to export scenes from Houdini Indie without any restrictions so as to render using some other software?

The other option, I suppose, is to import into Unreal Engine or Unity using Houdini Engine, but I'm just wondering if there are any solutions for using Houdini Indie to create pre-rendered VR content, as this is my main concern in buying Houdini Indie.

Thanks for any thoughts and advice.
