I don't know if this is a bug or if this was a intention. In my eye's it is a bug. The sphere in the attached image has fur, the cube is behind them. As you can see the sphere himself is transparent. The workaround for that would be to create 2 objects, one with fur and one with the texture but for a furred character which should be animated is this no solution so i post this here as a bug or "to do" for the future.

Single Side / Transparency / Fragmentation Issue:

In the attached image you see the problem. To render a plane without the odd fragments i have to switch "single side" rendering on. BUT, than i can't render transparent objekts correctly. Result: BUG

HDRI - where is my background issue. In this case i used a HDRI image for the lightning. (for this testscene i added also other lights for the lightworks render engine). As you can see, with dribble + HDRI i lost my background. This happens independed if you use a color, gradient or image as background.

EDIT: Environment texture -> show in background is OFF !!!

the HDRI..
it depends what view you use, if you use the perspective camera it is just black, but if you use a proper camera, the background shows

OK, I can build Dribble now. No guarantees, but if you post a bug with a sample scene file I can take a look at it. I'm very new to Dribble and Renderman, so don't be afraid to include too many details.

Here is a test with a fresh install of 3Delight9.0 and Dribble, with dribble1.04wip080808.tsx, and Clinton's shaders copied in Dribble's folder.
Dribble renders the scene with no textures, no lights, no bump/hair/shaders.
It only takes into account the color of an object if it is painted with a plain color shader (ex: cube painted in red will render red with Dribble)

I tried both 3Delight 64 and 32 bits versions (my system is running XP Pro 64) and the result is the same.
Note that older versions of Dribble don't render better.

[edit] After I replaced the original shaders with Clinton's, all worked fine !

Confirmed , unfortunately. Dribble 9.0 renders no textures. Just greyscale.

This was my first install of Dribble. First i thougth i did something wrong. Thanks Emmanuel, you saved me some work :)

Just curious, where are the Clinton`s shaders located?
