Plant Design & EcoSystem Functions includes nearly 6 hours of training for Vue Infinite/xStream and Photoshop, instructed by Nicholas Pellegrino from asileFX. In this training you will learn to: customize Vue plant species, create custom texture maps in photoshop, and design ecosystem functions in vue. Below you will find more information about each training topic and the lesson contents.
Training produced with Vue 9.5 xStream (standalone) and Photoshop CS4 Extended. Alternate numeric entries are given to Vue users with Vue 8.5 and under throughout the training, in order to match the settings of Vue 9+. Included Vue scene files will require Vue 9 and higher to load. All provided source photographs and texture maps will work with any version of Vue. Included Photoshop files require version CS2 or higher. Alternate Photoshop editing techniques are given to CS2 users that do not have access to the quick selection tool, introduced in CS3.
