Were talking about another program because were frustrated over whats happened to Bryce over the last few years. So yeah, we all have a right to seek what works for us. Watching these programs that at one time couldnt possibly hold a candle to Bryce are all pulling ahead with the technology (some trickle down from higher end programs like this instancing feature) and leaving Bryce in the dust. But I think the fat lady is just clearing her throat for unless DAZ bought Bryce to stick it in the dungeon to pull it off the market, they know they have to be able to compete with these other programs to make their product profitable otherwise, its a lost game. What made Bryce attractive aside from the fact that it was a great program, was that it was affordable and within most folks financial reach. Like Alvinylaya, I too am concerned that in order to compete within the market, DAZ may have to up the price which would probably not put it within easy financial reach to many of us. BTW, I dont know about Vues egosystem instancing but if its anything like what 3DS Max has had for many years now, the instance can be made unique meaning you can give it its own true existence within the 3D world and be able to ply it without affecting other clones.
