Like many programs of its era, Bryce has some very, very old underpinings. Unless they basically scrapped a lot of source code, they have to deal with layer upon layer of workarounds for long dead OOP frameworks. I know that didn't happen during Metas or Corel's ownership.

A lot of people keep comparing Bryce with Carrara - I dont get it. Ive seen some amazing work with Bryce doing non-natural scenery, but its market position has always been natural scenery. Carrara is an all purpose modeling/rendering/animation product.

The real comparision has been with Vue, which I believe caught up with Bryce around Vue 4. Bryce languishing at Corel didn't help that.
