3D Modeling software for companies wanting to create CG environments
About VUE
VUE is the only environment package on the market that includes everything you need for creating beautiful CG environments. From skies and volumetric clouds to terrains, large-scale EcoSystems, wind-swept vegetation, open water bodies, roads and rocks: everything is right there for you to use out of the box. Setup and render your project in VUE or use the powerful integration plugins in the Professional & Enterprise versions for creating, exporting and converting entire scenes for rendering in other applications and render engines. VUE offers an artist-friendly interface with tools designed specifically for natural environment creation. Craft materials which adapt to environmental conditions such as altitude, slope and water level, paint instances with natural distribution rules in every viewport and create EcoSystems where no two plants will look the same.

AutoCAD Plant 3D
The 2022 Plant 3D toolset is included with AutoCAD. Create and edit P&ID’s, 3D models, and extract piping orthographics and isometrics with industry-specific toolset for plant design. Collaborate on plant design models across project teams and maintain compliance requirements, all in a cloud-based common data environment. The Plant 3D toolset is delivered with standard symbol libraries in the tool palettes. They include PIP, ISA, ISO/DIN, and JIS. Quickly identify possible errors by scanning P&IDs for data consistency according to user-definable rules. Quickly create 3D plant models using parametric equipment modeling, structural steel libraries, and project-specific piping specifications using industry standard piping catalogs. Extract piping orthographic drawings directly from the 3D model and update them as the 3D model is being updated. Work with other industry disciplines to create BIM models for the plant.

PlantFactory
PlantFactory is the most powerful solution on the market for modeling 3D vegetation. Its procedural, yet artist-friendly toolbox empowers you with unprecedented control over every detail. Create anything, from tiny mushrooms to majestic trees. Whether you need ultra-realistic, high polygon plants for VFX and archviz, stylized vegetation for commercials or lightweight objects for real-time engines, PlantFactory will cover all your needs while integrating seamlessly into your pipeline. PlantFactory offers three different modeling methods that can be mixed and matched. Draw plants with primitives or self-made brushes, use components (building blocks), or create everything from scratch with nodes. Thanks to its open-ended design, PlantFactory can also generate non-organic objects with repeating structures easily. UV-unwrapping and proper edge flow and topology are handled automatically by smart algorithms. Focus more on creating content and less on technical nuisances.
