Description

Just a bit of playing around with Vue 10... I haven't used it much lately, but I'm getting re-introduced to this amazing app. Now, this isn't the greatest Vue render, but here's what blows me away about it... I rendered this at 3840 X 2160 pixels, 300 DPI with some settings provided by Art (adorety). On my old computer, a Vue render of this complexity - with all the trees, leaves, and so on - would have taken several hours to render. After installing it on my new machine, this render took........ wait for it.......... eleven minutes!! My jaw is still sore from hitting the table! This thing has an Nvidea Geforce 1070 8 gig graphics board in it, which is one reason I bought it. It seems to make a difference! I'll be doing a lot more with Vue, and you can pretty much bet more Vue renders will show up in the T.N.A. story (which I'm still working on - stay tuned!) Anyone else have trouble with certain places on the internet today? I couldn't get into my PayPal for several hours. Apparently there was a massive DDOS attack today. Hope everyone has an awesome weekend! Thanks as always for dropping by, and a big THANKS for all the sitemails, emails, dedications, and FB messages for my birthday! You all rock!

Yep, a great example of Vue showing its ability to create what looks like a real natural place.

And yeah, some internet sites have been incredibly slow and error prone the last couple of days for me too. Somebody's doing tests for something nasty I suspect.

Vue? I thought it was a great landscape capture, Rod. Wow, already you have mastered this software bro.pal pal and other places were hacked or fooled with, did not hear the entire story on the news, but several places were messed with including pay pal. And so forgot to wish you a happy birthday my friend. Just have had lots on my shoulders over the last month. But a. Late Happy Birthday. T.N.A., T.N.A.

Very nice work. Some of my first trials with Vue looked a lot like this. Now, try to add your TNA girls to a scene - Poser scenes can be imported. That's a whole new adventure.

I've tried importing Poser figures in the past - without much success.... I know it can be done; Art has done it quite a few times. But it hasn't worked for me very well. I usually end up exporting things from Poser as .objs, and importing them that way. Not a good way to import human figures, but it works pretty well for props.

Birthday??? When did that happen?! I have Vue 10, I rarely use it, maybe we can challenge each other to excellence...or at least decent mediocrity lol. But this render ain't too shabby at all. and 11 minutes is pretty good!

Um...Happy Birthday! cough

LOL - I think I've slowly advanced to the decent mediocrity level..... Hopefully I can kick it up a notch to the "damn decent mediocrity" level before the next birthday... :-D That was yesterday.... I've already forgotten it... LOL Thanks, buddy! It was a pretty decent one!

I am Jealous. I have a Titan X which I am beginning to think is broken. I have 12 gig of memory, but nothing of any size renders in under an hour even one light ones, and the screen goes blank at odd times. Mostly went I am playing a game. Of course everything else runs including sound, and I am dead when picture returns or to far gone to recover. I spoke to Nvidia about it and they had me change some setting but no joy on blackouts but renders are a little faster but still hour plus. The then wanted me to try in a different machine like I could do that. I guess I will have to contact the people that built it. I glad you have done well . They did not have that card when I bought my machine. Also Nvidia never did answer if getting another card would help. I an really disappointed in there tech support.

Awesome Rod! I can't wait to see more! No pressure The NVidea card will help as will as much RAM as you can cram into your machine. On top of that, if you eventually upgrade to a higher level of Vue, render times will lower a bit as well. Now that you're down to 11 mins for this, you can think about more complex and detailed models and materials as well as some more complex atmospheres and render settings.
