Oh FranOnTheEdge in case you didn't know, bump maps in Bryce can be set as high 999. And the larger the contrast between the gray shades between white and black (0-256) the more dramatic the bump. As has been said already, bump maps only offer the illusion of height.

P.S. The other thing you can do is bring into Bryce your bump map as a height map (a terrain) and then apply your original metallic texture to the height map. You may even increase that effect more by using the bump map in conjunction with the texture map again in Bryce over that terrain. O.o Make sense?
