techniques for e-on's Vue Infinite, an amazing landscape creation
tool and general purpose rendering engine capable of handling
scenes as large as 50 billion polygons. Starting at an introductory
level, Ethan covers all the main windows and functions within
Vue. He then discusses more advanced topics including strategies
for creating ecosystems, methods for designing realistic terrains,
and ultimately how to employ DEM maps through the function
editor and in conjunction with Maya. Ethan also covers XStream,
e-on's new plug-in for achieving seamless lighting and render
integration with Maya and Max.
