I know you're busy just getting everything sorted, but, as an avid Vue Infinite user, I'd love to get an unbiased renderer for Vue! :)
years ago I bought Maxwell in Alpha phase when it was announced as having a Vue plugin..which never materialized, grrrr!! :evil: So I only use maxwell for model making/testing etc

So I'd desperately love Octane for Vue :)

Oh is an Nvidia 9600GT powerful enough for Octane?

thanks for any help :)

Hi,

if vue can export to wavefront OBJ file format, you can use octane with it.
your card should work, but don't expect much, it's quite a slow GPU you have.
consider, after testing octane, buying a better card.

Currently there are no plug-ins planned for any packages (at least for the time being). It appears that Vue can export to OBJ so you'll able to try it out when the demo becomes available.

That's not gonna work as Vue is all about ecosystems and atmospheres, not something that will translate in a basic .obj export.

E-on will probably get on the OpenCl bus soon to if the market moves, I doubt it will ever go unbiased however but a balance between GPU and CPU may be the direction they would look at.

vue scenes have a lot of polys ive exported trees from vue and tried some terrains most things in vue you need to bake to polygons most of the geometry in vue uses displacement maps when i bake to polys the like a tree you have a couple hundred thousand polys in one tree so you probably need a tesla card for vue scenes still dont think that would be enough simple scene in vue can have 100 mill polys
