Professional Solution - Annual License

It would be great if we could get back the seamless workflow from previous versions of the max plugin.

[e-on] Hello Dustin, thanks for the review. We're unsure as to what you refer to with the plugins, as we haven't removed any, and the plugins for 34ds Max, Maya, C4D and LightWave are still available in the Professional and Enterprise solutions. If you are unable to have them installed, please contact our tech support center, they will happily help you out.

I use it since it was launched. A very powerful tool

I'm still unsure how extended licensing works. (My current subscription is still good for another 262 days.)

It is not a new product for me as I have been creating computer-generated image

I use VUE in 2 scenarios:
To prepare space ship models and to export them to my WebGL framework for realtime rendering of space scenes (almost all related to Star Trek fan productions).
And to create landscape scenes of fictional places or alien world scenes. I love to play with different atmospheres in VUE without changing the scene.

Fabulous software maybe just a bit expensive

I have been using this software for years because I know it's good, but I cannot give it 5 stars like I might have in the past because I really don't like the interface design one bit - the icons for al the tools are just light grey outlines. I know that this minimal design style is kind of 'in' right now, but honest to god I just hate it, it makes it so hard to actually recognize the tools at a glance any more and it just looks so ugly and 'industrial', not creative at all. I'm sorry, but really i think this is a really bad way to go.

The professional license of Vue contains all I need for my projects that involve Xstream functionality with Cinema4D. A better integration (free exchange of TPF format) of Vue and PlantFactory would be good.
