Upon first launch the 3D application will open in the Cloud by default, allowing you to get started immediately without any delays. You'll be prompted to switch to the Desktop version if it suits your needs better. This option is particularly useful if you prefer the capabilities or offline access provided by the Desktop version.

Switching environments

Temporary switch

If you choose to switch environments during a session, this change will only apply for that instance. It allows you to adapt to specific requirements without altering your default settings.

Permanent switch

Should you find yourself regularly preferring one environment over the other, you can set your default preference under the 'VU.CITY Desktop' section in your profile settings.

Optimising your experience

System requirements

Ensure your system specifications meet the requirements, especially if you opt for the Desktop version. This ensures that your projects run smoothly without any performance issues.

Cloud advantages

The Cloud version is ideal if your hardware doesn't meet the high demands of complex 3D models, offering a powerful yet less resource-intensive alternative.

Understanding these steps will help you manage your 3D projects effectively in VU.CITY, ensuring you have the right tools and environment to match your workflow needs.
