I'm just scratching the surface of it. It gets much cooler. I'm going to work on some nicer looking textures this week so the next render should be a lot better.

I splashed out and bought the Indie version. You can get the Vue only version which is cheaper and download Vue for free, it will still accept the City Engine exports and render them for you, but you get a Vue watermark in the bottom right hand corner. If you pay Vue some money, you get the render without the watermark.

CE comes with lots of tutorials, but I'm hoping that we can build up a group of CE users here as swapping rule files and 3d assets will make it much quicker for everybody.
