I am having problems exporting plants from Vue 6 Infinite.

When I export plants and select "generate color maps" Vue crashes upon export.

When I do not select this, and only export to .3ds or obj format, the export goes well, but the resulting mesh is a useless jumble of polygons. I select the resolution to get exactly the same number of polygons as on my object (in that case : 4480) and the exported object only has 1320 polygons.

I tried to export an object I had made myself and used in Vue and it did so normally.

Is there a way to export plants or is this function broken?

This was fixed in a recent release.  be sure to apply the latest update and it should work fine.

Well I have done the update. Still does not work for me.

Export without maps still gives me a geometry that is totally unusable.

Export with maps gives a correct geometry, but the "generate alpha map" button is disabled and I cannot export the transparency.

BTW: how can I have access to the maps used for the leaves and branches ? I would like to make my own ones and need a template.
