Quote - Is there a great deal of difference between Vue 11 Infinite and Vue 11.5? I am finding it difficult both financially and feature wise to keep up with all the upgrades! I mainly use Vue with Poser figures and I love the enviroments along with particles. I am wondering even if I find the money to upgrade if the new features are worth it! Cheers
The x.5 versions of Vue have become less feature-full since 7.5. It may be worth it if particles are your thing, and you're getting 11.5 for free, and e-on completes what they started when they half-introduced particles. But Vue has turned into a "let's do only 1/3 of a feature and announce it as a full new feature." Even their minor new features are only half-done. Some people have to pay though if they are going to be keeping up with 3DS or Maya or etc. To them, it's not about version numbers. It's about getting deadlines met. Vue is just a small piece of the bigger goal.
To a hobbiest, this is all utter madness. I got 10 for free when I bought 9.5. But have since gone back to 9.5 because it didn't have the bugs that 10 introduced, and had bugs fixed that were in 8.5.
