How to render particles

Create an emitter object
Add a particle system
Set the particle rendering type to one supported by b2p:

Billboard (as in tutorial) planes facing the camera
Object (each particles will be replaced by the object)
Circle (exported as sphere)

Tweak the particle system parameters
Attach a Renderman particle shader to the emitter.
