You can even add wet drips and drops to the skin.
#VUE ESPRIT 2016 REVIEW SKIN#
Vue also has or had a product called skinvue, which allowed you to customize the skin to give an almost photoreal look. Vue also has a drop to ground feature so there is no floating or sinking of the feet. You just have to turn the reflection down for each texture to get rid of this.
Exporting in collada format does make your character have a mirror finish when opened in vue. Just make sure to set the preset in your collada export to generic collada. If you export your Daz characters in collada format you will get all textures, you get all of the bone structure and can pose the character in Vue, and you can import your character with animations created in Daz Studio. Besides making sure that the pose doesn't cause the character ot "float" above or have a foot buried in the ground" objs (similar to what has to be done in Bryce). "Hence the only alternative is to prepose characters in Daz and import them as textured. Daz will use as many cores as you have for both Iray CPU rendering and 3DL (I believe up to 24 or 32 total). Only the more expensive Vue Infinite will use more cores/threads. So if you have that 8 core Ryzen or 16 core Threadripper you will only be able to use half the capacity of the former and one quarter of the latter. One point to note Vue all versions from Frontier to Complete will only use up to 8 cores total (including hyperthreads) for rendering. The base price to get the best functionality is Vue Studio at 399$, If you are looking at high quality animation, then the Kronos plugin is necessary (an extra 99$). In some ways it felt like I was playing with photographic elements as rendered scenes looked so "real" (long before Iray or even LuxRender).

I do like Vue's lighting system (also played with the trial version and PLE), and it is definitely ahead of either Bryce or Carrara when it comes to ecosystem design (it even simulates wind effects with the Zephyr plugin). Besides making sure that the pose doesn't cause the character ot "float" above or have a foot buried in the ground, my other concern how does this affect the polyconut with regards to hair which is usually transmapped in Daz/Poser? Hence the only alternative is to prepose characters in Daz and import them as textured. Not sure how Vue would handle either type of weight mapping that Daz uses when it comes to posing either and there would be no morphing. As I understand (at least from what I last heard) the posing routine in Vue can be pretty resource intensive.Īlso this pretty much would mean going back to Gen 4 based characters and so much for the main characters of my story (who are both teens) as I'm back to using clothing converters that tend to be hit or miss (particularly for more petite and younger characters).

I have Poser 8 and Pro 2012, haven't used them much since Genesis2 as DSON can be a real pain in the bum sometimes (not even sure if it supports G3).
#VUE ESPRIT 2016 REVIEW SOFTWARE#
I have made a major investment in the software and hardware, so I will have to use it, RL permitting : ) So, I am also very interested to hear about other folks experiences. I did a couple of scenes in VUE 2015 Complete when I first installed it. The VUE render engine also allows five licenses for multi-computer rendering, unlike IRAY or Poser's SUPERFLY.
#VUE ESPRIT 2016 REVIEW FULL#
The current version of VUE Infinite uses a NVIDIA GPU for calculation power for rendering (mainly for the antialiasing caculations, I think), but does not support full GPU rendering (scenes would be too big).
How much work it would take to re-optimize the shaders is a big question - and the render time might be impractical. Since the featues of DAZ studio have been greatly enhanced, I am thinking that I could instead use VUE to create outdoor scenes and export them for use in DS. There are various ways to export static characters from DS and into VUE without the pose-in-place feature (or so I hear). Although I have not checked recently, VUE did not support DAZ Studio natively (I hope they have added this support!). Unfortunately I have not had the time to set it all up yet. Vue natively supports Poser to add and pose characters within the scenes. I first got VUE as a gift, and have now upgraded to the current version, to (someday) set up big, realistic outdoor scenes.
