I also say "Thanks for the heads up":-))

I've D/L'd it, installed it, registered it, got the missing files (the Presets etc..) , moved them into the correct folder , and whaddayaknow - It Works! (well, at least as far as a max of 15 mins testing shows me..) :-))

I have been using Bryce 3D for many years now. I didn't upgrade, 'cos the advances weren't (to me) worth the price. But a free version of B5? Well, that's a no-brainer!

And now comes the inevitable question:

What is the best (if any) approach to take to get my B3 content into my brand-spanking new, free B5?

I'm not really worried about saved scenes (although that would be a bonus), but am worried about over-writing any B5 non-compatible content (if there is any).
My B3 (and its content) is on a separate drive (which is rather full).
My new B5 on a drive which has oodles of spare space (at the moment), so I can make a complete backup if necessary..

But which bits can I overwrite safely (If any)?

I could spend some time trying out this and that (and will probably do so), but any short-cuts/pitfall-warnings from anyone who has previously upgraded would be warmly appreciated:-))

(Off to play with the tree lab now - B3 doesn't have one..)

Cheers,
Diolma

Edited to add: I do know enough to know not to overwrite .exe  or .dll files or similar...
