We have had a fiery start to 2005 and completing the release of our P5 Fire Preset pack which will be available to everyone very soon. We are confident you will be thrilled with the photo-realistic effects in stills and animation, see an example [here](http://www.weirdjuice3d.com/downloads/TorchTest.avi) (DivX encoded AVI - 800Kb). A variety of presets and a PDF mini-guide are included. Also in the works are tutorials on using MetaForm to create static and running water effects in for pools, rivers and waterfalls, sculpting primordial landscapes with rivers and lakes of lava and volcanos, creating explosions and exploring interstellar space scenes all inside Poser. Upcoming Presets include magic effects, nebulas, terrain maps and vegetation. Keep an eye on our [website](http://www.weirdjuice3d.com) and the forums for future Preset releases. Our website also has an online survey for you to post any views wishes or ideas for MetaForm or Drops. Finally, Weird Juice is pleased to have had MetaForm reviewed in the current issue of [3D World Magazine](http://www.3dworldmag.com) (February 2005). The reviewer concludes: "It is undoubtedly the most significant add-on Poser tool ever" and awards the plugin 10/10 for value for money. MetaForm for Poser ProPack and Poser 5 (Windows) is available for sale exclusively at [DAZ](http://www.daz3d.com/shop.php?op=itemdetails&item=1539). Have a creative new year.

Just checking, the last time I asked the results of Metaform could not be exported to Vue. Is this still the case or has anyone managed to to this. I animate everything I do in Poser, but render in Vue. I want this but it is useless if I can't export to Vue.

These become just plain old 3d objects in poser. You will not be able to interact with vue stuff, but you will be able to create splashes in poser and then export them as static objects for vue. I bought this back when it was released, and I've been very happy. eric

I animate. I don't want to export static splashes to Vue, I want to export the whole Poser animation. Including the fluid movements. If they are just plain old objects, can the animations be exported?

This is something I need... but I do all my art on the Mac.

Hi Helgard and Carolly, Vue compatibility is the number one customer request and we certainly intend to address it along with the long-promised Mac version. The work we did replacing the Tkinter interface and Python with our own SDK has created quite a long delay in our development schedule so these version are expected to be implemented as part of the MetaForm 2.0 family of products, later this year. Thanks for your interest. Bill Weird Juice Software

This looks really cool. I think Poser is really lacking on dynamic effects and I will be watching this product.
