I didn’t bother reading the review. The website wanted me to watch a full page ad before visiting the site. I refuse to look at advertising.
Well this is not exactly true. The website gives you the clear opportunity to skip the ad. So it does not want you to do something but leaves the decision to you.
Not sure what point the article is trying to get across. All these programs are for different things. Geocontrol is for simple square heightmap generation 4096×4096 is max size. WorldMachine is for generation of large tiled heightmaps, example creating a world. Vue is for rendering those heightmaps for film. They all work together and all used for different things. Vue is for movies, the other 2 are heightmap generation apps.
