Ok, I already gave you my opinion about he speed test, but allow me to give my opinion about the final result. The truth of the matter is that it's close to impossible to recreate a scene in Vue d'Esprit in Cinema 4D, period. How on earth can you convert every option or setting that has to do with lights, shadows, textures, etc, to something equal in Cinema 4D? I also know by knowing this, that I can't ask for perfection. if a screen is a bit too dark or light, no big deal. I respect Thalaxis' opinion if he says that he's satisfied. I hope that he also respects my opinion if I say that I'm NOT satisfied. The terrain is an important part of a lot of Vue d'Esprit scenes and that's exactly were it goes wrong. I don't care about plants, I mean there are free models that I can import in C4D without a problem, so I don't need any real improvement in that area and yes, that's personal. Two other major aspect of a scene are shadows and textures and that's something that goes wrong too. It's not just the shadows that are messed up on the terrain, but also the shadows on the branches and leaves. Textures... where are they? I mean, this is not something minor guys, here is something structural wrong. I'm confident that E-on will find a solution for this, but until then I would blind or a potential thief of my own wallet when I say that I'm satisfied. Just throwing in another 2 cents ;-)
