I can't download it unfortunately :s

Since you're in The Netherlands as well, are you able to?

The link redirected to a dead/blank page...
The site is really slow today. I got to the homepage and used the link in the Advert there, and got to the same page, but this time it loaded fine.

If it doesn't work, try this link: http://www.cornucopia3d.com/products/vue/vue_7_pioneer/?page=download

That's exactly the link which isn't working ;)
But thanks anyway :)
Have you tried yourself in the meantime?

Tangled-Universe

Ha! After a minute or 15 or so it suddenly popped up if I want to open or save the file :P
Guess it's just extremely busy then.

So this is Disney World.  Can we live here?

Tangled-Universe

Yes I certainly will. Tonight or tomorrow I have plenty of time to play.

The Cornucopia3D servers are currently down "due to the tremendous success of the Vue 7 Pioneer Open Beta"  :(

...it does say they're working on it though so there's still hope!

Yes that sucks...I've downloaded the program but now you need Cornucopia to "synchronize" it before you can use. Why this?  ??? Why can't people just use it straight ahead without all the hassles  ???

That way they can get their fingers into your computer where they have no business.

Since you will get 7 Pioneer full when out of beta and will be able to buy additional modules building all the way up to Complete, they have all the rights to check that you have a legal copy of the program.

Also, remember that only with legally registered copies of Vue you can get much of the content from Cornucopia3D, at bargain prices (just compare Cornucopia prices with, e.g., TurboSquid ones).

Bye...

Yes indeed. When I keep in mind that, well, 99% of their (cornucopia) business relies on their site I can't understand at all that they haven't anticipated on an increase in traffic.

The synchronisation-server is down it seems...Vue 7 now asks for manual synchronisation. Luckily I copy/pasted the activation-code into notepad so now I was able to synchronize manually instead of having to wait for Vue 7 self to automatically synchronize :)

Now, let's see if Vue's any match for TG2 ;)
