Fantastic work! I am download the trial version now and I can't wait! It has been years since I've used it! I think I had like Vue 2 or something to that effect. I can't wait to see what changes they have made!

Yeah, it seems the download errors still exist sadly. I remember having the same problem with the previous version. Waiting on someone in the forums to give me a helping hand. ha ha!

Jaw dropping good work. I use lightwave and have come to a impasse with a scene I have been working on. I need trees, a polygon with a photo for the background simply will not mesh with the polygon of the sky and while I could possibly play with photoshop and edit things out, I would like to ask you what modals did you use with Vue to make this?

Phew...for a second there I thought you were going to ask to use this work itself (nothing personal - just a lot of people have been asking me for my work this week, must be this new wave of deviants who seem to think everything is up for grabs ) But advice is definitely something I can give out for free
With Vue, you should get a decent library of tree models to begin with. Though the "cheaper" versions (i.e, Vue Esprit, Pro Studio, etc) will only give you the original 50-something plants and trees, and sadly - no conifers (ruling out any chance of creating a pine forest scene like this) Though the higher versions of the software do come with extra plants, including conifers and several other trees that are more versatile when it comes to editing since Vue trees aren't set-in-stone models, they are like fractals where you can generate an endless variety of different ones that all have a similar look while avoiding "clone" models from appearing, as well as doing this with customized ones you make yourself
Vue has a way of dealing with incredibly high polygon counts in scenes, which happens pretty quickly one trees get involved. It's definitely wiser to create tree-heavy scenes in Vue than most other 3D software There are other softwares that are essentially "tree generators" that can make tree models even better than the Vue ones and allow you much more creative control over the tree's shape and appearance and then use them in your software of choice. But they are pricey

I have seen scenes like this when I traveled across the United States on our National Railway System--Amtrak. This would be very much of Their "Empire Builder" route across the northern U.S. The Pacific Northwest is also like this. Very Nice!!!

We have Deer here and they come into our yards and of course eat things in the garden. We have Coyotes and up further north, Wolves. We use to have Wolverines--a version somewhat like a Tasmanian Devil--ill tempered and will eat most anything but they have moved up towards Canada. There were Bears around years ago but they too have been pushed up as well. Skunks--pew!, Raccoons, Possums, and other little "Critters" roam around here, I hear them on warm nights and they like to get into our garbage cans. As I type this one of those things is making a racket outside right now. Our trees are all native to this area and there a lot of them!

This is a suburban area too but with many open fields--the town has about 200,000 people so it isn't too small but a lot of open areas separate this and other towns, some farms but it is mostly wooded areas and the animals like it. Our trees get up tall but they also grown near utility line poles and when a Severe Thunderstorm hits, they bang up against the wires and sparks fly and sometimes the is a fire as well but the rain puts it out. We have had them cut back but they keep growing back and in our city you can't cut down any tree that is alive.

As I typed this to you a storm did come up, it has been a cool this summer running about 10-15 degrees below normal but the past two days it really heated up and with the heat comes humidity. This could continue into early September, the local TV station said. The trees really blew around but being that is was 1 A.M. couldn't see much although I heard a branch crack. I always have to pick up branches and put them in the yard refuse bin. The trees here are 50 years plus and as I said, 30 of them. I have had lightning hit very close and it has struck the utility pole and as luck would have it, a transformer is mounted on it that services our area. The trees are all over and my fear is that one will fall into the house, funny, no around here ever thinks of those things when they plant them or build in a wooded lot. If we get an Ice Storm that is as bad, trees crack and split and fall. When we have Thunder storms at night, I usually stay up until they are gone, have to listen for the Tornado siren if it goes on and get everyone into the lower level basement and hope it will miss us. Such fun!...........

Here in the middle part of the United States we have large swaths of forest, some is used a wind and snow breaks but most has been here for well over a hundred years, The True Grassland is almost extinct in the middle part of the country, Farming and grazing over the last century has pretty well eradicated it. Fires are rare here but we did have a massive one here last year in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, but because the area is so sparsely populated--it really gets cold there--no loss of life. I have been through more fires in California than I can count and each year it gets worse, areas that haven't burned in decades are going up and of course in the Winter with all the burned out areas and Winter rain, we got a lot of Mud-flows which are as destructive as the fires, season that with a few Earthquakes and it can be an interesting time there.

That is the way it works in California and the western part of the U.S. Back further east, drought and/or flooding is the result. The thing that gains a lot of attention are the Tornados, they really cover just a minute fraction of territory but their devastation is complete and now we are getting them in the Autumn as well. Even in Winter in the far south in the U.S. there have been more. They are also byproducts of Hurricanes which are becoming stronger, I fear it won't take all that longer before we experience our first Hypercane. The storm, Sandy, that we had last year was really not a hurricane but instead a very strong storm and this was a first, it had blended in many aspects of both hurricane and regular storm. Yet there are politicians who say it was just a rare event and to please quit bothering them about our concerns--they will take care of us--yeah, like the fox will take care of the chickens. In New Orleans it was really the failure of our own infrastructure that caused that city to nearly drown completely, granted, Katrina was strong but it was our own foolishness that spell misery for so many. It all comes down to money--War is profitable but infrastructure is wasteful. The politicians here vote but they also vote their own personal interest--how much can they personally make off of it and the hell with the rest of us.

Absolutely amazing work! Great descriptions too! lol. I'm using Vue 6 XStream on a very old Dell desktop.

Yes, indeed it is. But everything seems to run so much faster using Linux, so I switched about 3 years ago. Have never looked back either. lol

I hope I'm not repeating a queston, but how did you control the snow on the mountain? There's a constrain to height function in the material editor, but it creates a sharp or blurred line, not the natural transition you have here. Is it brushes by hand, or is there a trick?
