Hi All
Does anyone know if the new pro version exports to Viz 4 or quite how the export or plug in works. Also how do skies compare to Dosch spheres?
Thanks CM

I think i don't understand your questions. What are Dosch speres?, What plug ins are you talking about? I don't think there are any in Vue Pro, nor in Vue d'Esprit. And Viz 4?

Hi Cravatman!
First... what type of objects can Viz 4 import? Vue4Pro can export objects as .obj, .3ds, .dxf and several other formats as well
Regarding Dosch spheres (or Surrounding Skies)... it depends on what you want to do. We've bought quite a number of Dosch textures and 3D objects and we think they're great! And I'm sure that their Surrounding Skies is great too - it's just that Vue allows you more control. Dosch skies are essentially set textures (animatable, yes) but you can't change the type of clouds or amount of light, etc.]
Can Viz 4 import .3ds scene files? If so, Vue4Pro exports .3ds scenes which I assume can then be used in Viz 4. Currently, as far as I know, only 3D Studio and Lightwave can work with Vue4Pro using the synchronizing plugins which allow alot of control over your scenes.
You should probably contact E-On directly and ask them any questions - they've been very helpful to us!
Good Luck!

Thanks Megalodon good ideas, maybe Dosch do samples. I know Vue don't have a demos of Vuepro but they might send me a sample and I could test myself.
