I am very interested in try Renderman for MAYA, but, as far as I know, there is no version running winXP64 with MAYA 2008 64 bit, will Pixar be releasing a 64 bit version in this life?.
Ask pixar, they are notoriously fast at doing versions when requested (by customers), its just that as long as no one requests something they wont be making any versions. So usually they do stuff on demand by real customers.
Byt yes the renderer is already 64 bit has been for a VERY LONG time, longer than theres been a 64 bit maya. So then theres ofnly teh rfm code that needs to be compiled anew. So unless they have used some very wierd code should be a weeks job or so. For a comppany thet prides itself in being able to do a port in 1 day should not be a problem
However they might want to reserve 64 bitness for the rfm Pro users. But seriously contact pixar they are very friendly, they don't bite.
