"Bryce is just as good as some of the 2400$ programs if not better" -I love Bryce. My first 3d program, but this statement is not at all correct. Is its learning curve much easier? is it an all around funner app? Yes. Is it as powerful. Not in the slightest. "Most 3D programs have Boolean Operations and Bryce is damn good at it, so yes it is a true 3D modeling program." -as Maxxxmodelz said. This is not the way to go about modeling. Its extremely "messy" and pretty much unaccpeted in terms of professional modeling. But you are right, Bryce is good at boolean operands. And for hobby modeling, its just fine The Deep Procedural texture editor is unmatched by any other 3D program. "wow. sorry. completely and utterly untrue. Max, Maya etc have an unlimited range of customization when it comes to procedural textures. I suggest you try out the other apps before making such a statement <--- prepares to get flamed dont take my words as meaning that I am not a Bryce fan, because Im a huge fan. But I also know that bryce's place is thta of a hobbyist application. That is not to say that NO ONE could ever get paid to do Bryce work because I know several of you on this forum have sold your Bryce artwork. But dont get offended when people write reviews talking about how Bryce is not made for production uses. It was never intended for that. But it is great at what it does.
