Hey, Cindy has Vue4 now...and she loves it! So she will be doing the food CD... As for the Vue Flowers, there are a couple here and there where the uv mapping came out a little differently after being converted from the original Lightwave, and I just couldn't couldn't get around it with either Polytrans or 3D Exploration. I Don't actually have Lightwave, but I know that the trouble is in how Cindy set up some of the surfaces. She's working on correcting that, and there may be an update at some point. None of the Vue4 flowers actually use transparency. That would increase their render time too much. Instead, I simulated their translucent nature by setting them as "single sided", turning on the "Backlight" function, and increasing the "luminescence" setting. -SMT
I'd rather stay in my lane than lay in my stain!
