Hi everyone, with a german magazine I received the full version of vue 2. I know that this version does not have animation included and can not render Quicktime VR. My question to you: I made a 360 degree panorama picture in Vue 2 und by putting it into a Quicktime VR software I wanted to make a quicktime VR panorama out of it. But that doesn't look good, because the distortion of the vue rendering and the distortion of the qtvr tool add to an unacceptable result. Do you know a trick how I can create a 360 degree panorama with vue 2 which does not have any distortion ? Thanks ahead, Hartmut BTW: Buying Vue 4 would be the best solution, but the money... ;-)

I have no experiance with 360 degree stuff. But you can upgrade to Vue 4 its cheaper than the full version ;)Or does your nickname means really what it says? (J/K) regards Myske

Try download Ulead cool 360 trial at download.com. When i had 2.0 it worked with me. Make a scene, render the camera in 35mm (or make two 180 deegre pictures and make sure you get all the scene). When finished rendering and saving all pictures (save as 1.bmp, 2.bmp, 3.bmp, etc) and load the picture backwards into ulead cool 360... (if you have seven pictures first add 7 then 6 and 5 and 4 etc) Then Ulead will make the pictures in a panorama view and it tries to overlap the pictures itself and blend them into each other.. but to make sure the 360pic is nice try overlapping the pictures yourself (ulead doesnt do the job that nice always!) (when overlapping make sure they overlap by aproxx. 15% so make pictures nice in Vue too!!!) try it out and if it doesnt work properly play a little with the settings. (ulead has about 14 pictures in a sample file which shows you how to make a 360pic and its quite nice (but save as .mov-file as uleads own viewer sucks!) hope this helps! check tqo pictures i made using terragen (the mountains) and Vue 4 (the univers) www.angelfire.com/ego/republicofrkm enter art site and go to the bottom . peace!
