Vue F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Nov 30 5:12 am)
Subject: Alpha Problem
Any specific reason why you don't import the pz3 to Infinite? The light situation looks a little weird here - a lot of light in the environment, almost nothing on the lady. What definetely is wrong here is the transparency setting. Maybe it is not full transparent - you should check the mask and the settings for transparency.
One day your ship comes in - but you're at the airport.
The reason I haven't imported the PZ3'S into Vue, is this is a test to see if I could make a lot of alphas,save them as PZ3'S and then import them into Vue,which incidently, doesn't like dozens of Poser figures especially the hi res textured DAZ figures.It seems strange that the alphas I have made work ok in Poser6,but when imported into Vue 5 Infinity I get this Ghosting effect.It has been suggested that I may have to adjust some settings in Vue.arrow1

One thing could be the transparency in the material editor, the other could be the brillance (shining ?) wich should be at zero. At the end, in special effects, you could decreased ambient or diffuse light If nothing works, you could put an empty alpha that takes all the surface of the picture, it worked with Vue4. Hope it could help, let me not ...
I don't know how many Poser figures you want to have in your Vue scene, but if you import them as .pz3, simplify some of the materials (see if you can get rid of some of the texture maps!) and then save them as Vue objects, you can easily have as much as a dozen different figures. Saving as a Vue object even retains the animation information! And you can use those figures in ecosystems too. Use the function editor to create some variation on skin and hair colors depending on location, and you can populate your beach with hundreds of sunbathing and swimming people. Without ecosystems, I have put as many as 15 different Poser figures in a single scene. There were quite a few Millenium 2 and Poser 4 figures, along with 8 Millenium 3 figures. Clothing also worked fine. With ecosystems I got as many as 400 figures in one scene - and Vue rendered the scene without breaking a sweat. More is easily possible, animated and all (there's a post in this forum - by jwitham I think - containing an animation of over 1200 P5 Judys marching over a terrain). The main advantage of VOBs over alphas is their reusability - no light matching problems, closeups work fine, and more. For simplifying the materials I can heartily recommend the free Human Skin Shader by dburdick. Used without texture maps it still looks very good, even in closeups.
The pen is mightier than the sword. But if you literally want to have some impact, use a typewriter
Can you suggest how I use the Human Skin Shader? I have a dugout sailboat with four figures in it and they are all textured.Also how do I simplify the textures? arrow1

Not sure if this should go to Poser or Vue forum! Here goes! Can anyone tell me what I an doing wrong with the making of my alphas to create this strange effect when imported into Vue5 Infinity.arrow1Custom built computer 128 gigs RAM,4 Terabyte hard drive, NVIDIA RTX 4060 TI 16 GIG Gig,12 TH Generation Intel i9, Dual LG Screens, 0/S Windows 11, networked to a Special 12th Generation intel I9, RTX 3060 12 Gig, Windows 11,64 gigs RAM, Dual Phillips Screens, 2 Terabyte SSD Hard Drive plus 1 Terabyte Hard Drive,3rd Computer intel i7,128 gigs ram, Graphics Card NVIDIA RTX 3060 Gig,1 Terabyte Hard Drive, OS Windows 11 64 Bit Dual Samsung Syncmaster 226bw Screens.Plus INFINITY Laptop 64 Bit,64 gigs RAM.Intel i9 chip.Windows 11 Pro and Ultimate. 4 x 2 Terrabyte Hard Drives and 2 x 2 Terrabyte external USB Hard drives.
