   VUE A-Z

   I became a VUE artist, when VUE 5 was released, and eventually went up the ladder to V.15 Complete. And , where I got tired of waiting hours, to create that "Perfect picture." And , why VUE failed miserably as an animation tool. VUE, for all it's improvements and changes, was basically stuck in the 90's, and still using the archaic frame building architecture found in WINDOWS . AVI. . IF , I wanted to animate anything, IT was going to be limited, and a VERY slow process. I.E. A two minute Ocean Sim, would take days to render, and the output, at best. COOL. but, with the brutally long, render times; IT basically became an expensive, worthless tool.

   Would I still recommend this for beginners? - YES, for the simple reason, it introduces them 3-D modeling, and scene development. IT'S also a good tool for matte artists, because creating a simple PHOTO REAL background ,takes very little time.

   OVER the years, though, I found the software, was real flakey, and prone to crashing. SO, in the end, I simply got tired of the nonsense, and moved on. I USE UNREAL 5 now, and it's a totally different world. I can create, and a fully animated scene, in a matter of minutes... and in full 3D , and with pre-animated objects. IT was game changer.

   SO, final words? I would give VUE a plug , for ease of use, and stunning photo real output, but, would not be my choice for an animation solution. Just, by it's design.

   I simply had too many bad experiences with the software. I hope the company focuses more on system stability, instead of adding MORE tweaks. MY assessment of V6.I , was very mixed. IT crashed constantly, yet, eventually was stable enough to use. V.9 , compete was an amazing program, and that's where E-ON got it right. Where they got it wrong, was the product was NOT affordable for the average user, and was also a factor; in me dropping the platform.

   🏁 Competitors: Unreal Engine

   👍 Pros:    Easy to use

• More of my AMIGA coverdisks magazines

  It says right there: "Play God with the ultimate landscape generator" and that's what it did. You generate a random terrain, mould it to how you want it, set the levels of trees, water, grass, type of sky etc, set the camera position, and then it would render it for you. These days there are many more options: Terragen, Vue, World Machine, World Creator, Instant Terra, Bryce. Source: almost 3 years ago

• Where to Watch?

  I've had decent success tracking down titles with Reelgood (https://reelgood.com/), which is basically a streaming aggregator. Also, it's not streaming but I actually got about a dozen Vinegar Syndrome and Partner Label titles on disc from my local library. Source: 10 months ago

• Any plug-ins to allow for Plex to show non-local owned movies (Movies on Vudu/iTunes/Amazon etc)

  To be fair reelgood.com can do the same thing but I like justwatch better. Source: 10 months ago

• What ship is this? It's the only one I can't really place from anywhere.

  I don't know what else to tell you, other than I only watched a few seconds of each episode, and to recommend the streaming search engines Reelgood and Justwatch. Source: 11 months ago

• Looking for suggestions for Roku alternative

  I moved from Roku to Chrome cast with googletv to use deep linking that most devices are no longer supporting. I use the reelgood.com app on my cell or website on my laptop to cast. I also use justwatch.com to open shows/movies to open the app you select to stream from. Source: 12 months ago

• Horror Tv-series with good story line.

  You can use sites like JustWatch / MovieFone / ReelGood to figure out where films/shows are streaming. Source: 12 months ago
