Yeah, I'm looking forward to telling a few people to bugger off for the 30 (or 60) days the Vue Infinite trial/demo version will last when they make it available. There's a couple of things in czarnyroberts image (and a couple of other betatest images in the gallery) that are a bit calming... now that I look real closely and have stopped drooling so much as this morning. Some of the trees appear in the middle of the plowed fields and on the roads (and in a river in another pic I saw somewhere). That could be due to either a software limitation (as to how sharp you can make a boundary for an eco-system) or just the result of the artist working with features they're only just beginning to explore and aren't fully conversant with. This is just an observation, not a value judgement on either software or user, the pictures rock either way. Like Attileus, I see that 600$ price tag, which becomes even more when you do a currency convert to Oz$, as a pretty big hit to the wallet though...... Heh, maybe its a good thing that b5.5 is delayed a bit ;) aeilkema/benjamin (apologies if you're not the same person) - ah, wondered when you'd surface here ;) But I do agree with you... I think Bryce is going to be very hard pressed to catch up to Vue. Vue's development has essentially had a three year head start on bryce, and in the last year especially, the Vue family of programs has really covered some yards.
