Ok, newbie question time starts! Rolling Eyes

I have searched the manual and have looked at different sites and forums, but, can't find the answer. So I ask...

What files types can be used in V6 Pro?

And, I also say...Greetings, I'm new to Vue, I got Vue5 Easel as a gift from a secret santa this year and in less then 4 days upgraded to Vue 6 Pro.  This program rocks!!

I'm also a newbie, not only to Vue, which was recommended, but to the 3D world. We have a huge corpus of existing digital images and scanned artwork (328,000 files at last count)  This may not be the right place to ask this question... but I did not see anyway to import, for example 3 separate 120 degree jpg' and turn them into panoram in Vue... not even the ability to import an existing jpeg scan of some artwork. The goal: to see if we can take existing content and turn it into 3D like images which we can then use in VUE... any recommendations?

Thanks!

I have attached an image that would be a typical example of something we would like to transform into a 3D image. Vue may not be the tool for this...

Actually, VUE was designed to work with existing 3D objects or objects you create, although 2D images can be imported as backgrounds and Alpha planes, or projected onto objects as Maps, Bumps, and Alphas.

 

If you know how to use Photoshop, you can bump the images, or displace them with PSP, Painter, or, with other software, and then import them into VUE, but your results will probably not be what you are trying to achieve.

 

It would be much easier, to create separate 3D objects, and then compose them as one scene, which would additionally require Poser.

 

Software is available to convert 2D to 3D but is very expensive.  There are companies on the Web that convert 2D images into 3D.
