I'll say a few things here as I have been very vociferous over the final release problems as I have certainly experienced them!
Firstly, there is a HUGE memory problem in this final release, no question and their tech support have admitted it to me and Iloco at the very least, that is a fact no question!
I did a scene yesterday, spectral atmo, 2 terrains [1 with eco-system], 2 poser imports [V4 and a building] and 1 spot light.
I had to constantly purge my memory to get the scene done and I mean constantly, every rotate, move or adjustment zapped my resource to 15% or worse. OK fine I got the image done and posted it, then someone pointed out an error in the image so I went back in to adjust it and this is where it gets scary!!! Opened the scene again and straight away on epening I got a resource has dropped message and when I checked it was down at 8%, now on opening a scene that is scary in anyone's language. I never had this on the pre-release which incidentally I was very happy with and even opened a ticket to tell them that too so I'm not a whiner for no reason or for the hell of it!! There is a problem with the final release!
Now my specs are P4 3.4GHZ HT, 7300GS Nvidia graphics, 2 Gig RAM, 350Gig HD
Not a shit system by any standards!!
All that said dstephany, when that memory leak is sorted [hopefully] then version 6 of Vue IMO will be a fantastic bit of kit, no question but if it doesn't get fixed it will be consigned to the waste bin!
Also if some aren't getting problems I don't understand why, you may well be one of them if you were to buy it, maybe you'd be one of the lucky few who doesn't get a problem and I mean few. It's not just on this forum that you'll see complaints, it's other forums too!!
Injustice will be avenged.
