As far as Bryce import capability is concerned, please remember that Bryce is owned by DAZ and DAZ's record on P5 support is dismal. This position was understandable when CL was foundering and P5 was a bug-ridden joke, but Dan Farr & Co. are still betting the farm on DAZ|Studio as the new hotness and waiting for CL to blink. I'm new to the community, and I'm not aware of the whole back story, but my opinion is that DAZ really has nothing to lose by supporting P5 AND D|S. Not everyone wants P5, so having DAZ Studio around so that people can buy their stuff and have a renderer is a smart idea... but... By not supporting P5, and not using P5, they're losing any edge they have in the content market. Sooner or later someone will jump into the ring, and then DAZ will have to seriously re-evaluate it's thinking. Unfortunately, by that time, DAZ will be behind in R&D, will have to make up for all the know how they didn't take the opportunity to gain... It just seems like, if my income were tied to the content market, I'd be doing everything possible to keep on top of my game in case Michael Jordan showed up and wanted to play.
