gangle Posted July 14, 2008 Share Posted July 14, 2008 I use Itoo Forest and Opacity foliage to keep my renders manageable, but lately I’ve been wondering about Vue or other landscape Apps that have plug-ins for MAX. VUE xStream from E-on looks especially interesting. Maybe I’m uninformed, but does this work interactively and easily with MAX? How about if the entourage is very simple; not a fantasy rain forest/Himalayan countryside? It would be nice to have some interesting entourage. What other forms of 3d foliage are there that keep frame renders down to a deadline-friendly minimum? I've seen some foliage renders from BioNat or EASY Nat, but the polycount still seems to be very high. How can I get good LOD for foliage? If I'm upping the poly count with a landscape generator, does that rule out, completly, the use of optimized GI? Thanks, Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just do a search of "Vue" within this forum and you will get your answer... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RyanSpaulding Posted July 16, 2008 Share Posted July 16, 2008 In a quick response, stay clear of Vue xStream. Nothing but problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
