Anyone heard anything about this from the vue guys?

QuoteThe Plant Factory is e-on software's revolutionary new plant modeling and rendering technology.

This new technology represents the culmination of e-on software's decades of expertise in the field of digital nature and delivers unsurpassed realism and performance.

As a next generation vegetation platform, The Plant Factory incorporates four foundational elements:

    Multi-Platform/Multi-Discipline – operates across all CG platforms including real-time, streaming, and offline rendering systems and caters to the needs of CG, SFX, Landscaping, GeoDesign, Architecture and Gaming communities
    Botanical Coherency – allows the creation of more botanically accurate plant appearances and behaviors
    Precise Control – users can create plants of any desired shape, appearance, and behavior using simple building blocks
    Massive Populations – building on e-on's leadership in EcoSystems™ to create landscapes containing millions of plants

"After years of research and consultation with our valued customers, we are very excited to bring this amazing plant technology to the market", said Nicholas Phelps, President of e-on software. "We believe The Plant Factory offers a comprehensive solution for creating vegetation populations of any size and complexity that will run efficiently on any platform, including real-time and offline rendering systems."

Definitely looks interesting and a useful addition to the arsenal. I would hope it is stand alone and not dependent on Vue.

I hope so too Richard.

I still have Laubwerk Plant Kit Demo on my PC, ready to be evaluated.
Let's hope that there will also be a stand-alone demo for Plant Factory.
You can never have enough tools like these!
