There is no doubt that Vue is a stunning program for landscapes and no Poser product is going to give you the same quality or options.

I used it for quite a while but I stopped uodating it because of the cost.  You either have to buy the full package or buy a cut down version and only add the packages you feel you need.  I have no problem with that but then found that they would not work with the next version of Vue.  The only option was to buy the add-ons all over again which is the point I opted out.  I still use it on occasions but as it gets more and more out of date I use it less and less.

Vue is a first class program with nothing to touch it.  Great if you have a lot of money and lots of time to learn.  It also eats memory as if it is going out of fashion so unless you have massive amounts expect the odd memory warning and be prepared for some very long render times.

 

 

 

I use Poser 13 on Windows 11 - For Scene set up I use a Geekcom A5 -  Ryzen 9 5900HX, with 64 gig ram and 3 TB  storage, mini PC with final rendering done on normal sized desktop using an AMD Ryzen Threadipper 1950X CPU, Corsair Hydro H100i CPU cooler, 3XS EVGA GTX 1080i SC with 11g Ram, 4 X 16gig Corsair DDR4 Ram and a Corsair RM 100 PSU .   The desktop is in a remote location with rendering done via Queue Manager which gives me a clearer desktop and quieter computer room.
