This has been on my wishlist at C3D for a while and I'm thinkinf of purchasing!!
I could be losing my job soon so any spending is limited and I'd like to know how users feel about it!!

No disrespect meant to Chipp, it's purely about my funding problems at the moment!!

TIA!!

Before buying that package, I must have seen all Vue tutorials on the net and I read all the pages of the official Vue manual. I made several renders of interior scenes and for each I tried many different light configurations. But, even with all this on my background, when I read the InteriorPak manual, I went "aaaah!" several times. I learned several things there that are very valuable for interior renders. Just in my latest image, I couldn't get the lighting just as I wanted. So, I thought, let me go read Chipp's manual again, maybe it'll shed some light. And it did.

If you want to make interior renders, that manual is well worth the price of the package (well, I'm assuming you don't already know the tecniques and theories explained there, of course - I knew only a few). The rooms and furniture that come with the package are cool and are a good start for your experiments but you can build a similar room more or less easily and you can find lots of free furniture in many places in the net. I used those once but I'll probably not use them again. Those are not the point of the package, the point is the manual. You could see the objects as a bonus item, being the manual what you are really buying.

This is, of course, just my opinion.

I agree with Rutra about the unvaluable manual.
I have only one pic where i used this pack in my gallery, and i deleted the furniture for it. But the advices and tricks given in the manual are really worth it!
As i'm someone who uses a lot HDRI lighting, this diamond is really welcome! It helps a lot to understand the mechanism of radiosity lighting and the Vue lighting setting.

You're doing a lot of outdoor scenery, but i'm pretty sure you'll go inside to render if you get this :)

The Vue manual is great for explainging what each button does.  What it doesn't tell you is WHY you need to adjust them, and in what order to get the results you want.  That is where Chipp's manual is so helpful.

Get it, the manual as everybody already said is invaluable, but if you are not using Infinite, some possibilities won't be available to you. But you will learn a lot anyway.

Thanx all, appreciated, yes I am using Infinite!!
