Things I don't see but would like to? 

• Would it kill anyone to make a decent (and recent!) outdoor set? Not everyone wants to buy and/or install Vue (I'm lazy these days - sue me.)

 

There is a new (and huge) Forest-Set at Daz:

http://www.daz3d.com/i/shop/itemdetails/?item=14492

It's for D|S 4 and PoserPro. I tried it in Poser 9 (SP1) with one M4 and got my first "Out of Memory" ever :unsure:  It looks really great tho, so I will try to tweak it

It's a beast of a set.  I rendered it all by itself in PP2012. FFrender.exe buzzed along using almost 5G of RAM.  Just loading it into Poser took over 2Gs.  And that wasn't even using the hi-res texture version. Yikes.  I wasn't timing it, but I'm sure it took more than 10 minutes to render a 1000 x 1000 pixel draft render (half of that time was just loading the textures -- Poser can apparently only use 1 core for that, it seems).  I can't imagine attempting IDL with it.

I'm not sure what I think of it, frankly. But I know I'll only be rendering small parts of it at a time.  The preload is huge.  The trees do look very good though!
