Hawkfyr, no, you're not going crazy. ;) The gamma is definitely messed and it gives the whole screen a garish, almost "Martian" look. Hideous. DigitalArtist, Bryce 5 cannot be much more of a joke than this so-called update. I think, at this point, the best we can hope for is that Corel does tank and someone picks up Bryce from the selling of assets that knows the potential of the program and how to actually "update" it. From this "update," it appears they were simply looking for an excuse to get Corel on your screen instead of MetaCreations. I guess I'll be reloading the original Bryce 4.0 and the pre-Corel updates over the weekend. What a waste of time.
