Yes- like that Pavilion! So many Pavilions-Gazebo's out there, but yours is my favorite. I had surprisingly little difficulty with rendering imported 3D plants- either untextured massive polygons arrays, or textured and transmapped items. Obviously VUE's strongest CARD is in it's SolidGrowth technology, and I bet they have maximized or tweaked their render engine to best suit it. Some of the best vegetation work-arounds are using RNDA-Traveler-TransPond plant sets. They are EXCELLENT for using in Daz Studio, and render very fast. My work-around with Vue plants will be to render backgrounds and alpha-plane plants and bring them into Daz Studio. The end result looks like a VUE render, but with hugely shortened render times. DS Render times are slower than Poser, but faster than Vue or Bryce, by far! Poser has a nice Phong render, but DS gives you the best of both Poser and Vue in MOST situations. Obviously there will always be some things BRYCE is extremely good at, and some that VUE is extremely good at, but overall Daz Studio makes an excellent all-around middle ground for most rendering projects.
