Having been one of the voices of cautious optimism, I have to say that the following from the DAZ team, as quoted above in post 29, gives me some cause for concern: "DAZ is about to begin development on version six of Bryce and we'd like your input. While we will only be to focus on a few keys issues in order to get a new version out in a timely manner (as a new version is quite over due)..." Excuse me? They seem to be putting the cart before the horse. The only appropriate time for the release of a new version is - when there's something new! "One of the primary issues of development for Bryce 6 will be that of importing DAZ content into Bryce seamlessly. We'd also like to know what other simple little fixes or changes you'd really like to see implemented." Sorry, a proper import routine and some other "simple little fixes or changes" do not add up to a new version. Yes, we Brycers are overdue a new version. A box with the letters d, a, z and the number 6 on it does not deliver that. I mentioned my concerns about DAZ's marketing in the other thread. On face value, this seems to fit right in. Take something everybody's already purchased, tweak it a bit and then sell it to them again. It's worked very well in the Poser user base - will it be the same for Brycers?
