SBT.. getting further into my render vue scenes in lux testing.  I have vue 9.5 which doesn't have the straight vue-to-studio ability.  You can't export an entire scene as an obj.  Just as a 3ds or lws.  I exported it as a 3ds then went into 3ds and exported the whole thing as an obj.  Vue doesn't do the obj/mtl file deal.  you get the obj and all your scene files if you check the options to make it export maps.  Once I got all of the above into studio it looked pretty hosed.  Then again, I didn't fool around with the materials at all.

The next thing I did was to create a simple bush and export just that.  When you export anything less than the full scene you are able to directly save/export it in Vue as an obj. I did this, imported the obj into studio, set the materials, then in reality added an ibl(env only) fiddled with the one material(vue saved diff,trans, and bump).  Made the render small so that it would render faster and here's the test render that was made.
