Opera: Exactly. Animations and all. Dynamic cloth and hair both work (dynamic hair doesn't render really well, though). Soft raytracing in Vue works, but only if you set the render quality really high - not what you want when rendering animations. You're better off using mapped shadows. One of the nice things in Vue is wind and breeze. Vue plants react to wind by swaying quite naturally - you don't have to keyframe the tree/plant movements. It's got some nice animation tools, especially with paths (pedestrian, vehicle, airplane), and it'll allow you to have your characters walk on the surface.
