message: The article isn't as clear as I'd like on this--is PRMan just the name of Pixar's implementation of the RenderMan spec?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Piojo (talk • contribs) 20:04, 7 July 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Relationship to RenderMan

message: stub with only a primary source, would be better combined with another stub by Pixar which is the main article by them (this being a tool for it) Widefox; talk 12:16, 17 June 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Proposed merge with [[RenderMan Artists Tools]] 

message: The lead sentence:
:RenderMan (formerly PhotoRealistic RenderMan), RenderMan Studio and RenderMan Pro Server are proprietary photorealistic 3D rendering addons to Autodesk Maya based on their own RenderMan Interface Specification.
...implies that RMS and RMPS are based on their own (that is, the software's) specification. As far as I know, all software is "based on its own specification"—in other words, it's written to be what it is. Wouldn't it be clearer to say these apps are based on Pixar's specification? E.g.:
:RenderMan (formerly PhotoRealistic RenderMan), RenderMan Studio and RenderMan Pro Server are proprietary photorealistic 3D rendering addons to Autodesk Maya, developed by Pixar and based on their RenderMan Interface Specification.
("Pixar" would be a link to that WP page, too.) I haven't changed the article, but if someone confirms this, feel free to do so. – AndyFielding (talk) 08:51, 25 November 2015 (UTC)
thread_title:  Lead sentence: Who are "they"? 

message: Would it be necessary to create a list (or a chart) showing what 3D applications utilize this software?
Blender, Maya, Katana, and Tractor are listed on the Support-Faq on the official page.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by RKC 117 (talk • contribs) 09:21, 6 February 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  Software that utilizes RenderMan 

message: Can anyone confirm or deny the relationship between RenderMan and "rendering plant"? It makes me think of Soylent Green, another Sci-Fi flick in the 70's.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.172.217.147 (talk) 22:37, 24 June 2020 (UTC)
