Yes, congrats.. a very well done composition. I really liked it!

Yes, He was a nice person and very helpfull. Condolences to his family.

While your artimetic may be correct, I am sure I am not one of the 32 members you mention. When I go to the gallery and see something I like, I comment and rank it. If it does not suit my fancy, I do not. That does not mean it is not well done or does not deserve a vote. I would hope all who go to the gallery comment and rank according to what they see, not who they know. Thats what I do and several others also. Not a critisim of your post, just a comment.

I'm sure this has been asked before, but will this work in Just VUE? I don't have Vue Pro.... Thanks

15 The rules say... "The picture should be about a bridge and what lies under it. Imported objects or characters are welcome as long as they don't attract attention away from the bridge. The secret here is "charators are welcome as long as they DON'T attract attention away from the bridge." While #1 is very good, the picture to me is more about the charactors than the bridge. Poser charactors are fine, but to me Vue is lamdscapes, seas, sunsets, that take a little time to construct and blend. #15 has blended water,sky and landscape very well an also constructe their own bridge. Lot of work. I go with #15.

If you TRUELY want a machine to do what you speak of... Check out this link. This is a friend of mines site who builts these machines for graphics artists. He has sold them to places lie the Si-Fi Channel, Dreamworks, and Pixar. I am sure you will be impressed! Price is not cheap, but these are truely a arists dream machine.

been there.. done that

Very nice "page not found" for the download.. This gonna be fixed?

Ask your local walmart retailer how their Lindows systems went over...

XP is not,in my opinion the major problem. Xp can be set to run Vue exclusively in memory in high priority if you want. Not gonna get in a Linux fight here.. And you might check some other topics and find your cure.. these are copied that refer to problems you refer to. "Well, I like VuePro, but then I am dabbling in animation. Much of the increased functionality has to do with that (like the full G buffer implementation). On the down side, you have to be willing to take good care of your OS and system, as VuePro has quite a few more hooks into the OS than Vue 4 does. And it can be memory hungry ( a gig of physical RAM seems to be the sweet spot when dealing with Poser importing, although more it better). If you are doing only static Poser imports, then Vue 4.2 is probably what you want. Animation, and VuePro will be worth the extra money, IMHO. " 3. Re: Vue 4 vs. Vue 4 Professional by Robot17 on 1/25/04 00:12 IMHO Vue Pro is a great idea that's not quite there yet. Some people say they havn't had many problems with it but for me it has been a nightmare at times. I've pretty much gone to modeling as much as I can in Vue and then finishing in Vue Pro when I need its functions that aren't available in Vue. The updates have helped but I still find it to be unstable and I'm having new problems on my XP box. I don't use Poser with it so I can't tell you anyting about that but here are some of my experiences. I tested it out on 2 dual G-5's (I have 3 G-4's, 2 G-5's, 5 PC's and older PC's and Mac's) and have found that rendering times on the G-5's for a single frame is about 1/3 faster than my Dual Xeon box. It's kind of wierd though because it seems like the difference isn't that much when I'm rendering an animation - I'm not sure why it makes a difference but it seems to. That is on the same animation it doesn't get completed in a third less the time - sometimes it seems about even. I've found the Mac install a bit more stable and the open GL better but I ordinarily model on my Dual Xeon at home and render on the G-5's at the studio. Its kinda nice just uploading to my FTP or burning to a disk off my PC and then running the stuff I do at home off the Mac. Long gone are the days when I used to have to pack a Jaz drive around to move files!! My suspicion is that some of the problems that are occuring with Vue Pro are a result of rushing it to market but I would still buy it knowing what I know because I'm confident that E-on is fixing the problems. Many of the new additions to Pro are really cool and are helping to make it an outstanding tool for what it is good at. I also think some of the problems are on my end too so its not just a one way street. You'll love it on a G-5 though as you hit F-9 in a full screen camera window and watch that puppy come up 30 seconds later... Bot Vue4 Pro is a memory hog.. Simple as that. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yes! That is the site.. Thank you so very, very much for the quick replys! His objects are outstanding..!!!

I can see when paid technical support would be nice for professionals looking to do new ways of animation or combining various programs or projects into Vue4 Pro.
I cannot see where if I buy software that continuously "crashes", or has bugs in transporting, sizing, or saving of files why I should pay to get help for buggy software?
Now I don't care how many say this software is "bug free" it simply is not to many E-On customers who have been on the e-mail hotline since this new release came out. I am tired of hearing that it is my system, my video card,another program conflict, and on and on. Vue4 worked absolutely GREAT except the opengl bugs that still exist in Vue4 Pro. I am lucky enought to sell computers for a living and I tested this program on five differnet models (all top of the line p4's with various graphics cards and no less than 512k highspeed memory. Guess what? The program will crash somewhere before a project is completed on ALL of them. All are running XP PRO with all the latest Microsoft fixes. No other programs except those used by XP are running. In my simple mind, its a coding conflict AKA "a bug" in the software.Whose software is the question. I have sent both Microsoft and E-On copies of the shutdown error messages. Prehaps this will help. Prehaps it's a Windows bug and can be fixed.
Vue4 is a great program regardless of shortcomings and hardly ever crashes. But Vue4 Pro... needs to have some serious patches. I am sure regardless of what is said, E-on is aware of these problems as are the many graphics web sites who report these glitches using their own testing. I will hang on to my copy and hope E-on will get another patch out soon. I am sure they are receiving information on the problems. To pay to fix something that was broke when released simply will not fly.
