About Poser Import, I opened a ticket, and they'll take care about that.

I underestand your frustration, same here. I've been away from Vue since release 10 and have sworn to never come back. Well, I've been tempted. "faster rendering" and "better Antialiasing" did it. I just don't see it. I see all those nice but grainy Vue renders in the gallery here and I wonder how the hell are they doing it. My vue renders allways look like post coulored B/W pictures. Photometric doesn't look even close to photoreal.

The best vue pics I've seen are all exported in Maya via Vue Xstream I guess rendering with Mental Ray. Vue seems useless on a single home maschine. I am hoping on some service releases, but I'm not over all optimistic. Vue is a nice environment app, but the render is cra... not useful. I pray for an Octane plug-in.

along with more power theres usually more to do and settings to get right. There are some threads at cornucopia3d about render settings and usually the folks there are happy to assist, esp the folks who do the beautifull jawdroppers. If you havent already try posting for render advice etc in the forums. If your renders arent looking well then check the specs too as far as card etc. I have 2014 and yes some atmos dont work as they should but then I havent had the time between work and school to research it. Up until I started with Vue and Maya my software was easy and intuitive but wasnt really powerfull. Ive decided that ive a long way to go to learn. Ive dealt with Eon and Cornucopia for years and even tho at times you end up asking a few times they will give the help you need. Keep at it and good luck
