Another one who sounds hurt, don't be!

I pointed out Unreal Engine because I think it's a threat to Poser and DS, I never brought it up to get you to try it.  I've been quietly using it for months without even mentioning it.

In fact, the only time I felt bad about not mentioning it was in Nygtfalls thread when he was talking about Vue.  I was going to mention it as a realtime replacement for Vue, but the concept sounds too alien I thought it best not to go there.  I did mention finding something standalone to create the plants that can then be imported into a program, and guess what, import those plants into Unreal and you can use Unreal's painting tools to paint those plants wherever you like, and again, all in realtime.  When you've placed those plants in real time, you don't have to wait for a render, it's already rendered, cause the render is realtime as well - lol

People don't have to be interested in this thing, but unless you're aware that things like this are real and do exist, you're living behind the times.  I'll be the first to admit that when I first found out about it I felt exactly that, that I were using a workflow way behind the times.

It might not be for you, but personally I'm super pleased I found out about it.
