ksanderson -
why would anyone who has access to vue want to render in poser? lights are better, texturing is better, rendering is better. I agree initially imported figures didnt look good because they are optimised for another system, but if you learn what needs adjusting, they look a thousand times better.
Mrsparky -
To use your anology - If I was into makink furniture, I would find it much more creative to actually create the whole item then to put together an IKEA self assembly set with screwdrivers, hand drill or power drill. I dont want to be the consumer, I want to be the designer/creator.
As to the practical side - I need a lot of control. If I like a 'real' forrest' I want to recreate the essential spirit of the place not the exact copy. I need to be able to 'move' some trees to make space for a clearing, I need to shorter a tree to enable the light to come through. I wnat some bushes that I've seen in one part of the forest with trees I've seen in another, etc. So I must create the scene, and if I created it I'm not regressing to poser for a render.
I'm not saying this freebie shouldnt be distributed, just that many avid 'vuers' wont relinquish creating and rendering their own vue scenes.
But just because I dont want to do collages doesnt mean scissors are useless and no one would use them.
