Quote - Wow I was looking at Vue 8.5. wooow. it renders humans awesomely and realistic.
Well i'm sure it has to do with the skin textures too and the great characters. look at this. NOw this is what i would like to see available for us Poser/DAZ users.

But it comes at a price and they **** raised the price. When i bought Vue 5 Infinite it was 800 dollars. now 8.5 is like 1495 dollars. It's like buying a good computer. oh well, i guess it's for PROS only.

I'm going to see if they have a Hobbiest version, i'm sure they do

Out of the box, Vue renders Poser figures almost as good as Poser does.  The figure's skin/shine/sweat/highlights/bump/displacement/fur/SSS has to be tweaked a great deal using plugins and 3rd-party materials before any kind of figure realism can be approached in Vue.  Vue does render landscapes much better than Poser however.
