Vue xStream Max 2010 Workflow Presentation

[Gotcha2Tanks4Life]

can you make snow maps with this program?

[atomu3d]

@Gotcha2Tanks4Life

Yup, rain too. There are many ways to make the effect.

Eco systems, shaders, trees, etc. Just got to be inventive.

[PatruDragos]

What is the difference between eon vue 9 xstream and eon vue 9 infinite ?:D

[wildesentertainment]

I get a grainy render on trees and snow material when i use vue inside max with mental ray - any ideas what setting could be causing it ? anti aliasing set to min 16 max 64 but still no difference

[mrcead]

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh! I get it now. Cheers!

[stephencrossover]

what render engine was used in this tutorial?

was it vray?

what's the workflow between Maya and Vue?

[youmasora]

@stephencrossover its mental ray for sure...but that is really high quality lightning

[patrik667]

WHAT'S THE NAME OF THIS SONG??

[benton202]

how come my vue 8 keeps crashing everytime i click on vue 8 xstream > file> new?

i have 3ds max 2010

[nourddinexfx]

nice mosque brother i wish i can do that in 3ds max 2011 i'm bigener

[hal2121]

How can I use Vue into Max with photometric lights???

[mariou69]

awesome software, it turns max into a world-builder much like game engine tools

[gajardodam]

To load the toolbar on 3dmax , within 3dmax go to Customize/ customize user interface, in the toolbars tab, click load (down right) and select Xtream-cui, should appear in the toolbars.

[Hot5six4231]

@gajardodam

thank you!

[ElNaChAsO]

hi! just a question :P ... how do u get that toolbar? cos i have vue plugin on 3ds max , but i dont have the toolbar! XD i just have it on the menu

[carbonhealth]

it´s just a pity that vue installs 1.5 GB useless shit beside the original installation, i would call it spam....

[BigBrotherWatchingYa]

Is this the best tree plugin for 3D Max? And also, what is the best car and people plugin as well? Thanks

[ACDSEVEN]

hi, we dont find in your web site in wich format we can export the movies after render the scne , mov, avi ?

can you explain us ?

[BucciPhotography]

HI. This is great. With this tutorial i discovered VUE and its a great program I liked it very much because of its ready presets. But can somebody tell me how to display that VUE toolbar in 3dsMax?

[shartep]

Free render farm. contact me if you want help with rendering your vue 8 scenes for free. i got pleenty of spare cpu time. im not joking

[MrEuromale]

@shartep only VUE scenes?

[shartep]

@MrEuromale well actually terragen 2 as well

[awpboyaria]

[bartek123451997]

super :P :D

[Clambercty]

Ok when I try to download Vue 8 from E-On I get error code 0 what is that and do you know how to fix it?

[blokeriii]

can u say ur pc configuration?

[cadam007]

ugh im sooo buying vue

[magia355]

Hi, just a question...How do I get the toolbar on the left side of my Max.....Please help me out...and by the way...great tutorial

[jerry870708]

@magia355

on your 3dsmax, open customize and load custom UI scheme

go to C:\Program Files\Autodesk\3ds Max 2010\ui

and load xStream.cui

the files should appear if you changed the files type in the window browser to *.cui

[magia355]

Thanks......

[haroldiedema]

shit lol..thats amazing o_o

[LikeAVideo]

How do i make that Toolbar in the left side??? i cant get it there...

[VanniS83]

great! i did some renders , watch them on my channel ;-)

[prat391]

i seem to be having a problem.. even if i disable the default vue sunlight in the scene the scene renders with an extreme white ouput in which nothing is visible.. but if i delete the light everything seems normal.. but i can't edit the atmosphere because i have no sun.. what do i do?

[kuikai100]

a+++++++++++

[mogogogoify]

Yes it works great with 3Ds Max 2010

[wind27382]

ok maybe it's just me but i didn't know it could work inside3d studio max

[cannoir]

@wind27382 me neither.its convenient though.especially for previews in the different viewports.

[xeromedia1]

Very disappointed with the instability of Vue 8 xstream..the tutorial video looks fantastic but I can't even get it to work in 3ds max without it completely crashing.

[3dside]

@xeromedia1 try to update your video card (last one)

[ComputerSnackStudios]

@3dside thats ridiculous

[ComputerSnackStudios]

@xeromedia1 me as well

[mizoss]

Hey,,Don't you all see the High End Professional studios use it and they don't complain about poor integration or crashing?!..

This program (Vue xstream) is for Professional systems(all I see here are people on single PC's with amount of RAM less than 8 GB RAM and you complain that the program is bugy and crashes?!!!!!!!!!!

[333Storm333]

dude this is NOT for profesional systems.. it could even work flawlessly on my laptop but the program is A CRAP PORT OF THE ORIGINAL program.. got that? its buggy plugin. standalone works good.

[ComputerSnackStudios]

@333Storm333 considering it costs over 1000$ i think its pretty professional.

[ComputerSnackStudios]

@333Storm333 nevermind your right,

[ampo2004]

Ja, i dont see a professional processor over there, there are using only a Core 2 Quad

[ChristopheSterkens]

@mizoss

Well i think my 6Core 8Gig will hold it??

[BucciPhotography]

@mizoss right... I have a i7 with 16 gb of ram and gforce 480GT, it rocks, it never crashed on this pc :)

[ErrorrPerfect]

@BucciPhotography LOL your computer is laughing at all others :D

[BucciPhotography]

@ErrorrPerfect bro I worked and learned for years on the old one which crashed many times even on mspaint :P.. but that trash has brought me a good job and this new computer... so keep trying... :))

[ErrorrPerfect]

@mizoss Old comment but

They also dont know that the pro pc's are all under ultimate networks sharing Ram Vram and cpus so they can render/Run most things that will take us 1-10 minutes in 40 seconds flat .......Slave machines

[Capeau]

@mizoss

lol, you obviously dont work at a 'highend professional studio' because they also complain about how buggy this is.

And yes, i know ppl that work at ILM.

[XQ00789]

Yes, it always crashes inside 3DS, specially if you use the plant stuff. As a standalone program, with a lot of tweaking to get rid of the flickering, it's fine. Vue integration with 3DS is still poor.

[naborghsoj08]

being less knowledgeable in computers before make me blame the 3d software for frequent crashing before...but now there are a lot of factors that contributes to crashing..vue 7 is stable under 6 gb ram

[jambanIT]

when this was released?

[Clambercty]

Its out now just came out like today, I think it came out on Nov. 1st or 5th in going to down load the trial to see how it is its $1450

[keekool]

Were they rendering using one computer in this or multiple computers connected?

[zoomaki]

heu... seriously it's not that long to render! in fact, Vue render engin is pretty quick! and I don't really have that much problem with XStream.

[arloj]

Could someone clarify how this is the different from the Vue 7 3ds Max integration video that was up a while ago? Same scene???

[arloj]

Produces absolutely awesome looking shots, and render-times are of course very high for an individual user, but the biggest issue is the constant crashing. I'd have hoped they'd have it fixed by now.

[GBOTFX]

it"s mystic version without any crashes ...?

[davidhayter26]

BEWARE before SPENDING your hard earned MONEY on this stuff.What EON won't tell you is that Vue takes forever to render. YOU ABSOLUTELY NEED access to a massive RENDER FARM to get anything decent with Vue. And the PERMANENT CRASH is KNOWN to anybody in the 3D field by now! Those are eon's DIRTY LITTLE SECRETS.

[anima0persa5]

You know it's true because he uses caps. Its hardly a secret if everyone knows about it and truth be told its a great program. Does it have its faults? Sure but bottom line is it delivers amazing results if you know how to use it.

[Cadmium77]

What nonsense...Rendercow is an awesome render engine...It's easier to use and faster than Mental Ray

[davidhayter26]

You sound like someone working for Eon! What do you have to say about the permanent crash of xstream?

[Cadmium77]

7.2 has always been quite stable for me. Sorry your cracked version isn't working well. Perhaps your computer is heavily infected with viruses.

[nirsul]

My (Legal copy) Xstream never worked - I bought it in ver 6 and upgraded to 7 hoping they would solve it - NADA ZILCH !

11400 US$ down the drain.

All the legal users I met at E-on forums commented the same - so if anybody here has 1450 US$ - I suggest to invest it elsewhere.

[naborghsoj08]

have you used vue with 64 bit xp/vista? i will try to upgrade my os to vista 64....i'm afraid to experience the same things like others...right now vue 7 is stable in xp 64

[Cadmium77]

Works fine on my Vista 64 set up.

I suppose the thing here is xstream vs stand alone Vue7...and frankly I find that xstream doesn't fully install or function in Maya the way it should... but as a stand alone its great.

[naborghsoj08]

animation using rendercow is a kickass ....i usually render animation for hours but in this demo...wow!!!

[naborghsoj08]

totally agree...i have xstream but i always run stand alone it is easier and faster...no crashes on a quad core os.... i even managed to to vue 6 on a pentium 3 before but i would recommend getting high end pc to experiment ...vue is versatile as you learn you discover things that are not in their manuals and tutorials

[CollapseDev]

I know but you gotta give em a break - they will get there eventually lol - I have had more than a perm crash - the program failed entirely with me.

[CollapseDev]

I take that back - all my hopes & dreams of the 3d world have shattered :(

They will never get there, even with motion cap & lip syncs the " Plastic & Jelly " attribute that is attached to 3d stuff will ultimately blow to make 3d obsolete.

& I didnt mention the bugs which this program has - a big waste of $ but dw this program is not alone.

[eclipse245]

How the heck did you get such fast render time? Serverfarm?

[nirsul]

Xstream version DOES NOT work !!!

I have tried to use it since version 6 uo to 7.4 - 1400 US$ gone to air.

BTW - This video show nothing new - it is the same as the one done for version 7 !

[CenekStrichel]

I tried some PLE version of Xstream .. and it constantly crash, so only normal version has sense to buy?

[nirsul]

No !

I would recommend using better plugins - costing xcheaper - Forest PAck Pro + AutoGrass + Evermotion Trees (also Free trees from AutoDESK)

The user forums at E-on are filled with ppl like me - having no luck at running Xstream. I tried the versio 8 PLE - also had crashes.
