I am thumping a tub here, mainly because if you go over to the actual Bryce forums, there is a huge clamour for faeries and forests (which as you may see are not my field ) and very little backing for animation, both from users and developers. The pdf for Studio talks of animation, but it's all in the future. There is a very loud group of people who will not budge on the look and feel of Bryce, and seem very happy that it exists at all. I feel they need to get new people in, not just cater for the existing user, or they will get nowhere. So if I have a skewed idea of the direction that DAZ may take, that's why.
