Hi all, I'm considering C5, but it seems that most of the new features are really only existing plug-ins that have been "included" inside the package. I already own Vue 5 Infinite, and the "surface replicator" thing looks like a pale imitation of the Vue EcoSystems. The only thing that really looks interesting to me, is the sub-surface scattering. However, all the examples I've seen on the eovia site or here look like simple absorbtion rather than true sub-surface scattering. Can anybody who's tried the beta tell me if it's real sub-surface scattering (like in the statue image attached), or just the basic absorbtion? Thanks!
