I just recently purchased Vue 4, and I cannot seem to figure out....can I import my objects from DAZ Studio and Bryce 5 into Vue? Every time I try, Vue tells me that it can't use the file. Do I need a converter, or is there a certain way that I need to save my files for Vue to import them?

You cannot import your objects from Bryce into Vue. However you can save objects in DAZ studio as .obj files and import them into Vue.

Thank you for the replies. My main concern was DAZ Studio, because I wanted to use my Poser Characters in Vue scenes. I know Bryce creates scenes like Vue does...but Vue is much better, faster, and more natural looking. I guess I will keep using DAZ Studio - and use Bryce on its own. Vue is my scene creation software of choice!

Umm if you ar using Poser, just go straight from Poser to Vue, it imports pz3 files, and if you get Mover, it even imports Poser animations, dynamic hair and clothing.

Thank you Llyr, but I am only using the Poser characters that I purchased from DAZ to go with Studio. I do not own a copy of Poser or Mover. I am trying to use what I have...if I purchase everything that I like at DAZ, I would be broke :-) I would like to concentrate on creating beautiful scenes more than character scenes and portraits. I have been trying that, but without practice - my characters just don't look right....not quite real enough yet. They look like wax dummies. I am still trying to read all of the Vue tutorials that I can find. I know it will all come with time.
