Quote - Plus Eon got hosed in that survey, becuase they listed every version of Vue known to man, instead of just saying Vue period, like they did for as an example for C4D or 3DMax.

You can blame that on Flak for telling me that the Vue option should be broke down by version like the Poser, Carrara and Bryce options were.  ;)

Guilty as charged on that one. Besides, E-on deserve to get hosed for having a different Vue flavour for every day of the month :D

Actually, I thought that there would be enough Vue respondants to create some interesting information on what versions/flavours of Vue that the poser/DS users tend to use when they choose to use Vue. I was sort of surprised that there weren't more Vue responses.

The reason I didn't bug Westonmi that C4D/Maya/3DSMax should also be split on version/flavour grounds like some of the others was because I didn't think there'd be enough users of those apps responding to produce any interesting information by splitting it up. At least it looks like I wasn't too far off on that count.

Sort of related.... A while back (Feb 8, 2009) I did a quick survey on what was being posted to some of the galleries at Rosity.

Bryce - 80
Poser - 493
Vue - 124
Rhino - 8
Carrara - 25
C4D - 54
Mojoworld - 8
Lightwave - 12
MixedMedium - 62
Photography - 525
Daz Studio - 201

Those are the numbers of pages of images posted in the various apps' galleries in the 45 days prior to when I made that list (using whatever the default settings are in user prefs).  While these numbers don't take into account how slow/fast it is to do something in a given app, the quality, whether they're wips or completed images, or anything beyond being just numbers of images posted, I think they provide another rough way to get an idea to what people are "using" at Rosity. (I can't emphasize rough enough)

edit - at the moment there are 66!!!! pages of 3dsmax and 18 in Maya.....

Dreams are just nightmares on prozac...
