Hi all, I know this might get a little bit annoying... But does anybody of you guys know about a date when the Poser import functionality within the Mac version of Vue will work?!? Last reply I got from e-on was quite awhile ago and they said it would be available very soon. I'm asking myself what that means... In the meantime I'm getting quite impatient. You know, I bought Vue just because of the promised Poser import functionality. Then I realized it would work with a OSX version of Poser only, which will be Poser 5 ;) After several complaints e-on told me that there would be a workaround within the next update...but when will this update be released? Don't get me wrong. I'm a really patient person, but I begin asking myself if e-on is making fun of all the Mac users... I browse the Vue gallery nearly every day thinking to myself: "I wanna do these great images using Vue and Poser, too." Doing the OBJ-import workaround is quite annoying and I don't get the results I'm used to get when using Bryce. That's the reason why I haven't published any Vue pic until now altough I was among the first Mac users who bought Vue... Please brighten up my day a little bit. I'm quite depressed! Phil

Phil, when the update is ready, e-on will announce it. Nobody else then e-on can answer your question. Guitta

poor Phil... I can understand you ! if you bought VUE for the POSER import... But if I'm right VUE 4 only works on OSX, and POSER not. So the one to blame is Curious Lab don't you think ? They should make POSER 4 compatible with the latest MAC operating system (released more than a year ago !). Anyway, this won't solve your problem... but you can still use VUE4. The gallery is already overflown with Victorias, Stephanies and Mykes, you'll be more original if you don't use them !!! Eric

Here's the latest press release. Poser technology surfaces in Vue d'Esprit | June 17, 2002 By Digit staff Curious Labs, makers of the 3D human-modelling software Poser, and E-on software, makers of 3D landscape software Vue d'Esprit, have teamed up to enable native Poser animation technology to be added to Vue d'Esprit. Vue d'Esprit can import still Poser scenes, says E-on, and then only on Windows. The addition, says the company, will mean both Macintosh and Windows users will be able to run Poser animations fluidly through a 3D Vue d'Esprit scene. E-on says it will showcase the new technology at Siggraph 2002 -- held in Texas on July 21-26. Digit will bring you full coverage from the show.

Phil, On E-on's website they say it works but only with the OSX version of poser which of course is nowhere to be seen. I'm looking at Vue for the same reason Poser to Vue, but until Curious Labs gets their crap together I guess I'll be sticking with Bryce5. I emailed Curious Labs...still waiting for a response. Jon

Jon, it looks like we don't have to wait too long anymore... With the next update Vue should be able to import Poser scenes made with the classic version of Poser. Anyway I'll keep me fingers crossed and knock on wood until I see this feature work on my Mac ;) Phil
