Although Houdini was able to support Renderman, it was still very difficult to use. This is a milestone for Renderman's emphasis on Houdini. As the most powerful new feature of Renderman 22.5, Pixar rewrote the plug-in to fully support Renderman's latest interactive workflow, including interactive lighting, shadows and modeling, seamless support for Houdini properties, and more.

RenderMan currently uses Monte Carlo path tracing to generate images.
Support for Reyes rendering and the RenderMan Shading Language were removed from RenderMan in 2016. Historically, RenderMan used the Reyes algorithm to render images with added support for advanced effects such as ray tracing and global illumination. Additionally RenderMan supports Open Shading Language to define textural patterns. This specification facilitates communication between 3D modeling and animation applications and the render engine that generates high quality images. RenderMan defines cameras, geometry, materials, and lights using the RenderMan Interface Specification.
