Hi all! thanks for the replies! To answer the question about pricing of a new Bryce. We would be aiming at selling Bryce for its old original price of $200 - $300 USD. This would include the pro, and basic versions all in one application. We definitely could NOT sell it for the same price Corel has it for now, and we would definitely not make it any more expensive than it used to be. I have an idea for the DTE. .. for creating more and more detailed textures.. Imagine being able to essentially have infinitely deep textures. The DTE has three parts and the combination part. Lets say you make a procedural using all three parts and the combination part looks like a green grassy material. What if you could THEN restart all over again, in a deeper level of the DTE, and use that grass material you just created, as only ONE of the three channels of the next level of DTE. So, in essence you could then grab 3, three channel procedurals, mix them up in the 2nd level of the DTE, and thensave THAT as a new resulting procedural. After that, you could repeat the process all over again. Ofcourse the DTE's interface would need to be able to accommodate multiple levels of editing, but I think it could quite easily be done with regards to coding, since its taking what is already there and using it over and over.
