Realism in Vue
From the back cover:
This comprehensive book, distilled from over 10,000 hours of experimentation, takes a revolutionary approach to how the real world can be simulated in e-on software's Vue. Renowned Vue expert Dax Pandhi walks the reader through his innovative techniques to achieve staggeringly realistic results.
Realism in Vue encompasses the core pillars of nature - Atmosphere, Terrain, HyperTerrain, EcoSystem, and Material. Comprised of examples from real world projects, the book focuses on achieving realism while improving both the ease and speed of scene creation. To accurately portray nature in digital form, the reader is given clear understanding of the parallels between the real world and Vue, as well as the artistic license the platform can provide.
