512 will not do unless you do 2 figures at the time? I've got 512Mb and WinXP too, and I'm working on a scene with 10 Don's and Judy's (all with dynamic hair) and a complete city in it without any problems. Just make sure you've as less as possible running in the background and no other applications are open. But upgrading to more mem never is a bad thing, but cannot be the cause of your problem with 6 figures only. After all the reqs for P5 are these: 500MHz Pentium class or compatible (700Mhz or greater recommended), 128MB system RAM (256MB recommended), 24-bit color display, 1024 x 768 resolution 500MB free hard disk space and you're way above that. How about your Harddisk, does it have lot's of free size still?

To dissapoint you in reference to your title "Where can I get Victoria OBJs", Victoria isn't for free, but you can get it through DAZ3D. I've got V1 & M1 and they're excellent in usage and there's lots of stuff around for them still, especially at PoserWorld. So getting a PoserWorld subscription and M1 & V1 from DAZ3D, may require a small investment, but it's worth it for sure.

You're welcome, enjoy the demo(s). If you decide to buy, do consider Mover 5 too, which allows you to import animated scenes in Vue and dynamic clothing/hair too. It's imho an excellent plugin for Vue4/Vue4 Pro.

Here: http://www.e-onsoftware.com/Download/Try.php You can try different versions, but only Vue4 and Vue4 Pro are still available.

I've read the interview too and it sounds like Bryce see a price raise in the near future when they'll implement all of these new features. One statement worries me though, "DAZ Character support in Bryce", that doesn't sound to good for Poser users at all. After reading the interview I'm rather glad I've got Vue (looking from a Poser users perspective), sounds like Bryce and Poser will never be real friends like Poser and Vue are.

Thanks, does Gold mean we have to pay gold too ;)

I started out with Poser 3 & Bryce 5. Imported the figures into Bryce 5 and rendered them, was pretty OK. When I upgraded to P5 and wanted to import and render the new P5 characters into Bryce that's when Bryce really started to show his age. You need to export your Poser figure as an .obj and you will get quality loss. The new render engine in P5 is superior to the B5 render engine and the importing of all the new P5 features is impossible and the Don/Judy just don't look as good in B5. Don't even mention dynamic cloth and hair, no go with Bryce. So I downloaded the Vue 4 demo and wow, it just imports Poser figures/scenes rightaway (.pz3) and the rendering engine in Vue is light years ahead of Bryce (and Poser too). Also the trees/plants in Vue look much better then in Bryce and I find it much easier to use then Bryce. Creating new materials or editing existing ones is much easier in Vue too. I did get Vue with Mover 5. Mover allows you to even import dynamic hair and cloth and completele animated poser scenes into Vue. With Vue it;s very easy to create a good looking realistic scenes, photo realistic scens, as well as fantasy like scenes. With Bryce I never quite did get (photo) realistic scenes, they always seemed to be somewhat unrealistic. I really wish I would have purchased Vue much earlier and for me it's well worth it's price, Bryce is just to limited when it comes to working together with poser. Bryce is too old, it can not compete with nowadays standards anymore. I've used Bryce for many years, but for me the time had come to get something more in tune with my current needs and wishes. For me Vue has everything (and more) that Bryce lacks and does a much better job then Bryce ever did. IMHO

Well after my subscription I can only say one thing, excellent stuff!

Thanks!

Thank you all for replying and advicing, do appreciate it a lot! I've ordered a one year subscription to start with and just noticed that my PW username & password arrived while I was asleep, so I'll be trying it out in a minute.

Thanks guys for all of the replies! I'm going to get the 1 year subscription one of these days, seems like the best start for now. Just wondering why he can offer his stuff so cheap compared to all of the others around. Perhaps they all should join him :)

Thanks for answering! "Some have complained that the content revolves too much around Mic and Vic (and now S3)" Isn't that the problem everywhere? Most places I see have a lot of content for those figures and only a little for P4/P5 figures, but at PW I did see a lot of content for P4 figures, not sure about P5 figures. I'm mainly drawn to PW since it has a lot of decent content, my poser pruductions have a broad audience and most of the content on renderosity isn't suitable for everyone.

I've been using it for 2 months now and have not entcountered any bugs at all. The only problem I've encountered is a lack of memory problem, large scenes are quite memory hungry. That's not Vue's fault but I need some more memory for larger scenes perhaps....
