E-on Software has released Vue 8.4, an update to its Vue 8 solutions for digital nature, available at no cost for all registered users.

The new Vue 8.4 update adds the following new functionality to Vue 8:

  • Improved displacement mapping: computation and rendering of displaced materials on standard terrains is faster and more memory efficient.
  • Multi-materials: new multi-materials allow users to change all materials of any given object in a single operation.
  • New material control with a new "Relative to sea" material mapping option, and "Sea level" input node.
  • User-definable units in function graphs
  • Easier pose/motion handling
  • EcoSystem display improvements: The rendering of shaded EcoSystem billboards is improved to provide more accurate coloring and reduce flickering when moving around the scene.
