Save your money and get WinXP..Then download the free programs from Max and Maya and start learning them because the bottom line is if you want to make some serious cash in the industry you will need to be able to show that you can and will use Maya or Max and yes even Lightwave...And the bottom line is yes once you learn your way around the higher-end programs you will be stunned at what you will create and you wont get back to Bryce as much as you would like but you will go back and will create better artwork for the experience that you get in the higher end programs...Also so far I havent seen to many of the higher end programs with very convincing Land masses and at least with Bryce I can export the Terrains and then Play with them and deform them and then of course re-import back into Bryce for the final Bump and Textures...I want to learn the Higher end programs and with the problems I am haveing with win98se and Poser5 I am saveing the money up for WinXP and I am off to download all of the free editions again just so I know I have the newer versions and then comes the fun...Dont get me wrong I am and always will be a brycer because I do think that soon Bryce will be knocking all of the 3D world on their butts with the new abilities...And I am very sure that soon it will be rivaling some of these Higher-end programs,Anyways I am going to be following Bryce because it is an awesome program and it was one of the first I used(Truespace was first)and I will always use it because it is so easy to use and with just a few TWEAKS I can achieve fairly good results on EFFECTS in Bryce Granted I am not That good yet to achieve the results like you can in higer-end programs but just give me time and I will have the Partical system made for Bryce,just check out a few of my pics...So after ranting and just basically pissing everybody off in this thread because you all just read all of this dribble that I typed I will say this DONT COUNT BRYCE OUT YET I cant wait for the next version....Please please make me a BETA_TESTER please....
