Heise, big german IT publisher asked Corel about the future of Bryce. Bryce 6 is not under development "yet" said Clare Shepard from Corel. Asked about the number of programers working on Bryce she said: "Not easy to say and we never tell such" Clare Shepard said: "Notlong ago we published an update for Bryce" She talked about the 5.0.1 Bugfix for Bryce 5. In US Corel is actually selling of the last Packs of Bryce 5 for 80$. Clare Shepard said "It is possible we sell the Bryce Code to other companies" She said too: "We see actually no market for Bryce" .... What can I say? Corel has blindfolds and can not see what is going on outside their building. Greetings from Germany Thomas http://www.heise.de/newsticker/data/ghi-27.07.03-002/ (The information in german)

An 'update?' LMAO! If that's an update, the hair that i just tore from my head must be a wig... or something but yeah. that's donkey droppings. may she never find a night's rest again. Drac

All they ever seem to say is lies and misinformation. They also seem to believe that Bryce users have little or no intelligence, we are apparently unable to see through the rubbish they continually spout. I don't understand why they don't see that there is a Bryce comunity out here that is very much alive and kicking. Catlin

Because (I think so) Bryce has no place in their new concept of all business software. There can be nothing that is "fun" to "play" with. Same will happen to KPT Tools I'm sure. Long ago Corel was a company with visions. But actually? Only a big bunch of numbercrunchers. Thomas

Obviously the distance between what Corelcrap say and what they really want to say to closing. We've had the corporate spiel, then the spin followed by the ghastly truth in wolfs clothing. Corel could not care less about bryce or its community. The sooner we ackowledge that the better. At the end of the day they are brutally pragmatic about the whole thing: Red ink=bye bye bryce. As for further updates and Bryce 6 it is really just the emperors new clothes. Maybe corel should churn out knives; they've stuck a pretty good one in all our backs :(

...5.01 an update...hh...yeah My "Primates" piece, is getting more real for every statement Corel makes. Perhaps we should send them a case of bananas...?

Perhaps we all should send them mails - all with the same text, something like that we disagree how they treat us. J.

I vote a case of processed bananas - primate droppings.

Oh I agree with the primate droppings................maybe they would eat them in mistaking them for bananas. 8)

( Bryce 6 is not under development "yet" said Clare Shepard from Corel. Asked about the number of programmers working on Bryce she said: "Not easy to say and we never tell such" ) How about...none, zero, zilch, nodda.... Actually those are easy word to say.... ( Clare Shepard said "It is possible we sell the Bryce Code to other companies" She said too: "We see actually no market for Bryce" ) well maybe there is one company interested in it.... but we don't want to sell to them cause they will further develop it...instead of killing it.....we do have our reputation to uphold you know...

Maybe somebody should send an email to this fellow Heise together with all the links on the Bryce forum that discusses the Corel dilemma and their treatment of their customers and what appears to be their real intent. Yuck! Catlin_mc, primate droppings dumplings! :-o

So there isn't going to be a Bryce 6. That doesn't stop me enjoying Bryce 5, which is still a great program. It's time to get away from this obsessive update fever.

I think we should mail-bomb corel with bryce-renders of REAL updates, primates, contact lenses and glasses. As for processed bananas; Yuck! Corel is already way to icky.

Heise is a big IT magazin publisher in Germany and I kick them all time in the ass to inform about the problems we actually have with Corel. It takes months but well..yet they see it and I hope we can make them focus a bit more the feelings we all have. What about other 3d and PC Magazines worldwide? Shouldn't we start a big "asskicking" so they all help us in the final to more effectivly kick Corel? Thomas

Maybe a letter writing campaign would have some effect. Is anybody in touch with other Bryce communities and can tell us what they think? Lin

I am a member at 3DCommune but I don't go there as often as here, but there are a lot of members here who regularly write over there. I think a mass writing competition is in order.......the winner gets to nominate the next owner of Bryce. 8) Catlin

Dear Corel;

As a Macintosh user Please, Please....

Kiss here---> (|)

Thank you!

Aye, I think that a a mass-hatemail wave is in order for those silly people at Corel. I'm not ORDERING anyone to send them their opinions, but now might be as good of a time as any. Also, if a Bryce community the size of this one slammed them a bit, it might push them to either : A) Quit. Nothing cooler than coercing people into quitting their well-paying jobs, for no reason other than shame. B) Harass US! That would be pretty cool, too! or, C) Get on it. Bryce 6 should have been out months ago. If they haven't started it, they should sell it or shoot themselves. Save us the lead. There, there is my text-based violence for your viewing/laughing enjoyment!

ROLF...................8D Death to the enemy............"DOWN WITH COREL"!!!!!!!!!!
