Vue 9: Full Solutions for Digital Nature

Vue is the premiere solution for creating, animating, and rendering natural 3D environments, providing unrivaled natural scenery creation, precise artistic control, leading-edge performance.
Capitalizing on breakthrough technologies introduced in previous versions, Vue 9 will also deliver a number of important new features such as:

EcoSystem 4: dramatically reduced flickering, optimized rendering and memory management for Dynamic EcoSystems, and more...

Relighting: to instantly adjust the lighting of the scene after the render completes, lights can be turned on and off, colors can be changed, all in real-time!

HDR Multi-Pass Rendering,

HyperBlob Technology: convert HyperTextured MetaBlobs to polygon objects with user defined LOD - ideal for the creation of extremely rich and detailed rock formations,

Improved Terrain Editor: new Decal and Smear brushes, automatic Terrain Retopology, Sculpting and Painting masks, Terrain Canvas extension, Contextual brushes, custom terrain brushes...

Custom Interfaces: Create simplified high-level controls and access these controls directly from the material editor, the terrain editor or the object editors!

Interactive Network Rendering,

LumenRT extends the concept of static rendering by adding the ability to move around inside pictures, in fully photo-realistic quality.
Designed to provide high fidelity visualization with accurate lighting, shadows and reflections, LumenRT is the ideal solution for:

Creating a virtual interactive showroom,

Demonstrating and sharing design concepts,

Visualizing 3D models in client presentations,

Exposing your projects in fully real-time photo-realistic 3D,

More information about LumenRT will be disclosed later this year: lumenrt.com


Carbon Scatter – Advanced Natural Instancing

Carbon Scatter is a set of plugins that allow the creation of complex populations using the native instancing technologies of leading CG applications.
Carbon Scatter integrates e-on’s patented EcoSystem™ algorithms directly inside the end users favorite 3D Application allowing the population of native scenes with millions of instances and render with the users renderer of choice.
Carbon Scatter currently works with 3ds Max Mental Ray and Vray. Versions for Maya, Cinema 4D, LightWave and Softimage are currently under development.
E-on software will be opening a free Open Beta program of Carbon Scatter for 3ds Max in the coming month. More information will be released closer to the opening of the Open Beta: carbonscatter.com
