From what's I've played with in the demo of both applications they both have their strong suits. Vue is more poser freindly than Bryce. AND both are much better than Worldbuilder, I'd buy both cheap to get away from Worldbuilder, their tech support, and costly upgrades. Since I have Lightwave for modeling bryce really isn't needed for me, but I'm interested in Vue, but don't understand why there is no upgrade-side grade for VistaPro users or Worldbuilder or other competative applications. I payed $400 for Worldbuilder, I don't want to have to pay an additional $200 for Vue when Bryce users get a side upgrade discounted price, only reason I have not bought Vue as of yet, though I desperatly want to buy Vue. Oh well, I guess I wait on th side lines.
