If you look at earlier versions of Vue, you will see that in Ultra mode both Standard and Superior settings within the Antialiasing options are selected; in version 4 you will find just Superior selected. It looks as if soft shadow and blur quality was sacrificed by not having both antialiasing modes used under the Ultra setting in Vue 4, for an increase in render speed. I presume that the antialiasing code for the render engine was further re-written to increase speed under the User setting as well. I do love Vue, but the changes to the render engine where a massive dissapointment for me, in Vue 4. For anything that does not require volumetric or caustic effects I would prefer to go back to Vue 3, as that renderer is miles better. As Eric says though, if you have also got access to a different 3D package, then the odds are high that you will get better results from that render engine anyway. Cheers
