iloco; (a) The realtime key encryption scheme is new tech for e-on; it didn't exist when the content for Vue 4 was fielded. And remember that said content has been part of the install from Vue 4 through to Infinite. It has been paid for many hundreds of time over, as opposed to new content, that has development costs attached. (b) The 'encryption' is not some draconian scheme to keep anyone from exporting a scene; it is nothing more than an automation of the registration code scheme. File exporting is broken due to problems introduced in the 5.08 patches, and there were some server side issues with the new content as well. I can not say it any clearer. While they interacted to break things, these are two entirely separate issues. (c) This has nothing to do with trust, and everything to do with trying to protect their IP rights. (d)"I have a qwuestion about A Garcias models. In Vue 4 I could not find a way to export so why would he have locked the objects knowing that was the case." This you would have to ask Alan about. Those are his models, and so far as I know, -he- was the one who set all the parameters. (e) "I sure wish we could get back to the Vue I thought I had bought to do landscapes with and not be a back door to a store. Why can the store not be linked with a browser for those who want to use the store and let us who only want Vue the software as it was originally intended to be. Is this to much to ask." Er? I think you have confused Vue with Poser, m'friend. There is =NO= interconnection with the Cornucopia store whatsoever; you do -not- have to be online to use content purchased there. What on earth gave you that idea?
