 BEAVERTON,
OR, Apr 7, 2010 - e-on software, maker of the leading solutions for Digital Nature and natural 3D
environments, today announced the immediate availability of a new revision of
Vue 8 Frontier, which adds native import of DAZ 3D models."The ability to
import DAZ 3D models in the Vue Frontier product represents an exciting new
option for users", said Dan Farr, DAZ 3D CEO. "Vue is a great complimentary
application for surrounding DAZ 3D models with Digital Nature and producing
high-quality, visually appealing, renders."
Vue 8 Frontier is designed for 3D enthusiasts to easily compose
character-filled images and video clips. It provides powerful nature
creation tools, together with built in Poser and DAZ 3D character rendering.
"We’re excited about the new DAZ 3D import features in Vue 8 Frontier",
explained Nicholas Phelps, e-on Software CEO. "Our customers have been
requesting this capability given the increasing popularity of DAZ 3D models
and use of DAZ Studio with Vue."
Based on the Vue 8 core application, Vue 8 Frontier will import any
static* Poser or DAZ 3D model (exported through DAZ|Studio as collada
files). Vue 8 Frontier also supports the native shading tree of Poser, so
that Poser characters and materials render correctly - with the added beauty
of Vue's Radiosity and environments!
Vue 8 Frontier includes a free version of SkinVue 8 that adds the ability
to enhance human skin realism. A VuePython powered utility, SkinVue 8
quickly and easily transforms Poser and Daz characters into vivid, realistic
models.
Vue 8 Frontier retains the modular architecture of the 3D Enthusiasts and
3D Artists products, to progressively upgrade all the way up to Vue
Complete.
