Thanks Brandon, long time no see.  Here in China, I am the Senior Landscape Design Manager at the Venetian in Macau, China.  Our resort has 4-30 story hotel towers, 8 pool decks, 3 large interior gardens to rival Vegas and the forecourt or arrival zone will be heavily planted in 4 distinct tropical themes.

Whats everyone working on these days that they would like to share with the group?
We would love to hear and see what great things you are creating…
Come on in and please share with everyone…

I am big into spaces for children. I have worked with children for many years and love to find ways to help them explore, develop, and get a little closer to nature. They are our natural scientists. However, I am also studying storm water mitigation and its connections to green streets. Am working to find ways to combine the two interests.

I am a design company that builds. I am extremely passionate about what I do.
My design style is definately contemporary, but will design more natural projects if required. We lean toward the more high end projects that require pool, structures and landscaping. Look forward to networking and learning more.

My favorite projects are residential, with bigger budget. Contemporary style in the design and including the design of the pool and light.

Great idea for a group! I’m not in much of a position to offer advice but am eager to hear a discussion of this. I can say that since I’m also a planner in addition to an la (and have several times been the only planner on the office design team), I’ve always made a point to check my planning resources (web and old fashioned networking) for RFPs…[Read more]

What projects do you want to work on? What steps are you taking to find that type of work and work on it???

Who has a great strategy for finding work and getting it once you have found it???

These renders took about 25 minutes, 150 dpi, 2000 pixels in the bigger side, I used the “Final” preset.
Later on I discovered some other option under the atmosphere editor menu, activating global radiosity gives a new fell to the renders. I´m using Vue 7, I think there´s not radiosity on earlier versions.

I’ve just seen them, nice works… Can u give some clue about the render times?

Retrying…

Fabio Hi,

I can’t see the renders, is there problem with my connection or attachment, would you please send’em again or give a link instead 😉

Hi Rfox,

I know that Vue Xstream is coming with a plug-in that helps integration with Max (it also gives chance to use Vue’s render engine in Max). But I haven’t had a chance to try it yet.

So, no I haven’t used any plug-in. I’ve created the plants in Vue and exported them via standard Vue export tools with maps & UVW Coordinates. These tools…[Read more]

I like the plant library in vue and the ability to populate large areas, but it would be hard to get into a firm, so expensive and importing other geometries isn’t the best. I just like messing with it.

Are the 3d and 4th using the vue/3d max plug in? I haven’t really gone into it that far yet but it seems good.

Is anybody using VUE? It is pretty good though most materials would have to be custom made. Good interface with Max and is import/export.

I just got Revit and am starting to play around with it. Has anybody started to use it? I might have to take a training course though. We will see.

Also started playing with Maya’s MEL scripting. I got a book called “MEL Scripting for Animators” which is really good so far but slow to get through.
