Great news, EI is on the right track :slight_smile:

Indeed that is very good news.

The first thing I would do if I was EI would be to rename the Conception 3 group of shaders and really push EI ability to do natural environments. For years I missed this brilliant set of plugins because of the name and wished EI had the ability to do landscape shading like Bryce!

Also I would then do a deal with northern light plugin to have a special environment package that includes these shaders alone with Placer and psunanmi. Also in the package there should be some very good tutorials that shows how you can great environments that are just as good and more practical than Vue and similar packages.

Another thing EI could do is buy the Image2Object plugin code and really develop it into a useful terrain builder and add it to the package.

To me fast rendering landscapes has always been one of EI great strength that has never really been pushed

Just a thought

Hi Robert,
Good points raised.
But did you mean “Image2Mesh” instead of “Image2Object”?

#16

sorry you’re right I did mean Image2Mesh.

Cheers

Fast landscape (and waterscapes) to rival Bryce and Vue?

Nice thought. I bet it’s very doable.

#18

How do I get the UB update of Conception 3 Shader pack? Is it available through EIT now? Thanks. -Doug

Hey Doug
Not sure, they’re not showing up on the Konkeptoine page on the EITG site. On Konk’s site it says UB versions are available. I’d send an email to Phil, he’s really good about the konk stuff.

Good luck!
