Vulcanccit-

Basically remember this- BRYCE is NOT a modeling program- it has no more real modeling tools than what Vue has. OBP is a Bryce file format- like VOB is is Vue file format. They are for storage purposes only. Nearly all nice models made for Bryce, or Vue, are made in a Third-Party 3D Modelling programs. So they are ALL exportable (except NATIVE BOOLEAN made objects.)

Here's a link I have been posting in the Vue Forum since the very first days this forum was created here... heh-

Wolfie's website hasn't changed here since MetaCreations owned Bryce- and they released their final Bryce 4.1 version- and then the company blew-up... Bryce going to Corel- and finally- to DAZ.

But even with Bryce 5 and Bryce 5.5- the same "secret Easter Egg" tool has remained since the final Bryce 4.1 release-- so in other words- YES you can export stuff from Bryce. I have been doing it for many years- I have previously purchased the Bryce X-Frog stuff to use in Vue- as well as Phillip Drawbridges Bryce models DAZ has had on sale- and the now very current Bryce Terrain Freebie that DAZ is giving away- ALL can be used in Vue by exporting them- WITH texture maps-in 3DS, OBJ, COB formats. I sometimes export in multiple formats because some come out of Bryce better than another format- it all depends on what the ORIGINAL modeling program was that created the model- that was imported into Bryce in the first place!   (Bryce terrains export out as DEMS and other formats usable in Vue.)

So EXPORT AWAY- there are TONS of nice Bryce models that I now have in Vue... like for instance- MESKI's Country Church and BeyondVR's Bowie Knife available NOW over at 3DCC'sFreestuff.
