I dont think Eovia missed out at all on Bryce. They really do have their hands full making Carrara and Amapi the respected successes that they deserve to be. Having a third quite distinctly different product would just be confusing to the buyer. I think Eovia will move in the direction of making the Amapi Carrara combination a complete 3D suite with great modelling and rendering tools. They can inmplement all of that Bryce/Vue stuff into the interface and produce a package that is better then both because it is usable for more then just landscapes. What I would like to see is an alternative to Photoshop that integrates fully into the 3D design workflow. Anyone who knows Painter well, knows that with some enhancements it could be a serious contender with PS as the 3D Texture creator of choice. If Eovia bought Painter from Corel and improved on the tool set, and fixed the bugs, they could capture a serious segment of the 3D amateur/profession market no problems.
