    Whilst some props export fine, a lot have messed up UVs on export. The props look fine inside Vue itself, so I am not sure why they can not be exported properly. Does Vue have some propriety UV system that is difficult to export? Is there some export options I need to select in order to export the props so that their UVs will work in other apps? I tried obj, dae and FBX formats, but in all cases the UVs of some props are messed up.

    There is a gothic cathedral I would particular like to export. I have some Catherdral interiors, but no exteriors like this model.

    Hi,

     

    When exporting, in export options:- "Export Materials" -> Bake to texture maps + Generic UVs.

    You will then also have other options, such as texture map size output.

     

    I did a quick test exporting the catherdral as .dae with those bake options, and renders OK in DS

    Hi,

    Thanks a lot, I did exactly as you specified and now the Catherdral exports just fine. I will try and do the same with the other models where the UV was messed up.

    Cheers.

    So awesome this is now free, the last version I spent $ on was Vue 7 with a lot of cornucopia addons.. I am guessing some of the older files may not work with the newer software, but I will have to see.  I have been wanting to learn Plant Factory for a while, but just didn't want to drop $$ for a subscription.. My first try at some Palms imported into Bryce.

    Hi all, after searching some tutorials for Vue, i found this cool book released for free by his author "Quadspinner":
