I rebuilt the interior version with two overhangs. Kind of a balancing act between making decent overhangs and the overall look of the place. Also trying to allow for some decent camera shots. Overhangs are based on mapped out courses. Moderate difficulty level for the overhangs. Climbing holds are/will be "jugs", a few "pinches", a couple of "pockets", "edges" and a few "slopers."

If you have any changes you'd like to see in this, please let me know as soon as possible. Otherwise, I'll call this version "final." (Roof is removed in these renders to allow light into the place.)

And your feedback really helps.

Thanks for the feedback. I was wondering about how difficult to make this. So, I will re-make it to include overhangs.

And anything else you'd like to see in these two versions?

Got to run errands today, so, the changes will delay this getting into the Marketplace by Friday. But I'll be happy to do it. By the way, despite the lighting, this one will be the interior version. Also, should I also add an optional mattress and because it is interior, should I add a suspended safety line and carabiner? I'd built one like this. Should I add it as optional and you can position it if you like ????

Two climbing walls - one interior, and one outdoors - should be in the Marketplace around the end of this week. I just have to place all the climbing jugs on the walls.

These will be in *.obj file format.

Thank you!

I think part of the problem, in addition to the horror of trying to rebuild the web store, with all the associated license keys for every product, is that people using the current versions of Vue are mostly model-builders in their own right. Semi-professionals who can build their own, or afford to buy models from Turbosquid. So, while Vue is a great product, the user base has changed considerably in the last few years. Mostly people in the game or movie industries.

As a Vue modeller, I haven't put up much of my large inventory here because the user community seems so small, the effort to modernize each model and build new sets of promo pictures has not justified the work. But, sales are starting to pick up a bit, and so I will start publishing more of my inventory. I would like to use Vue 10 as the base requirement. Would this be OK with people?

The email I received says that they have decided to let it go away. They explain that it is far too much work to restore the site and maintain it.

You could contact the web site and ask. As I said, I cannot import an *.fbx file in my original copy of Vue 2016.

Mine cannot. I don't have the very latest version of Vue 2016, but *.fbx is not an option for import on my older copy.

Well, of course, you come here, and you go to nSpir3d.com (associated with Renderosity).

E-On Software is still in business, but owned by Bentley. (https://www.bentley.com/en/about-us/news/2015/september/14/bentley-enlivens-reality-modeling-through-acquisition-of-eon-software).

Vue itself seems to have moved out of the hobbiest realm and into the professional realm. So, it appears that the majority of the people purchasing current copies probably are model-builders themselves, or are able to purchase pro models freely. So, there are only a few places where you can purchase content for anything earlier than Vue 2016.

The managers of this site are trying to encourage the old Vue model-builders and plant makers to re-publish their content here. Maybe more items on nSpir3d.com And this fellow is giving a try - http://www.vue3dmodels.com/ The claim in this store is for "tons" of models, but I counted only around 34 items. But, it could be I didn't spend enough time on that site to really discover everything.

CGTrader has a bunch of very interesting items that are full terrain scenes made by a fellow known as "Raffyraffy." And they have a lot of individual items of good quality.

And, I saw a bunch of the old Arabian desert items on DAZ or some place like that. Models that had been built by the old Cornucopia3D in-house contractors.

I would put up more of my inventory of some 500 models here, but there seem only to be about 35 Vue'ers who come to this site. Not enough to justify the labor of getting everything updated and making the necessary set of product renders. So, I've been kind of discouraged. But I will put things up for the older versions of Vue here from time to time.

No, sorry, this is not possible.

Why is no one mentioning The World Machine?

Actually, aelikema, a useful alternative for you might be to go crazy and experiment with the various gaming engines. Microsoft's free Lumberyard, or the free Unreal. Both of these have been used in architecture renders, so we know they can produce good-looking renders. And there are tons of free objects, including landscapes and plants for them. Plus characters. Neither one of these has an excessive or burdensome learning curve. There are free tutorials, too. Although making scenes and renders certainly is not their intended purpose, they can be used this way, and they're kind of fun to play around with once you get the hang of it.

And they're cheaper than Houdini.

Agree that Bryce is not dead!

Wow! "25 seats" mean that you have render nodes for 25 machines - that is, a network program that would allow you to use 25 different machines for making a single render. Just for your information. Two orders of this more or less implies that you received an email addressed to you by mistake. E-On is attempting to fill someone else's order that is working in the industry somewhere.

So, it would be polite to reply to E-On and state that you might have received this email from them by mistake.

Laughing......, by the way, I thought I was the only soul here determined to never to join Facebook. Aren't we glad we've abstained?!

Just checked. I do not seem to have an unauthorized monthly subscription charge.

You're welcome. Had a spare hour, so made a few yarmulka tonight. Wool, cotton, in modest colors with decent fabrics. So, if anyone needs one, just let me know and I'll upload.

Sure, I did that first. Gill. BUt I can't help noticing that Wabe often posts here and always seems to have good information. Sometimes, we get a quicker answer here.

BMDesigns, thank you for your answer.
