I searched the forums and couldn't find it, so I am posting it here in the hopes others will find it when they are looking for the answer. In Bryce, to turn off anti-alias on an object before you render it, click the A (Attributes) of the object, then hold down cntrl + Shift and click the check to close the attributes window of the object, then when you render it, that object will not be anti-aliased.

 Handy feature when you want a bit of a rough edge on certain objects in a render, especially nice with terrains sometimes.

The ball on the right has anti-alias shut off.

Thank you..

Nice! I never even knew that feature existed. Thanks:)

Oh, cool!
Never knew that.
Thanks!

Way cool! Thanks! How on earth did you work this out?

 Cool trick and I echo TheBryster's amazement.. ...

As far as I know this feature has always been available, I learnt about it when I printed off a heap of tips and tricks for Bryce 5 from  a website called BSolutions dont know if this site still exist as it was a few years ago. I will check it out and post a link  if its still there.

More info. Turn off antialiasing became available with Bryce 3.1.' BSolutions ' still shows up on google but I have been unable to access the site.

.....and if you want anti-aliasing turned back on again, click the "Attributes" button to bring up the Object Attributes, and then just click on the "check".  Anti-aliasing is now turned back on.

Wow, good info.  I've got to do at test render now.  Kitchen's book only reported not AA a single object was to do a mask and render that object separately and combine in post work.  This is so much easier.

Well poop,  yes kiwi_gg, BSolutions seems to be gone... I had it bookmarked for all its easter eggs.  boohoo

Did anyone go to the trouble to make a copy of them?  The defunct link is still in Backroom also. 

thanks a ton.. great to know.
BBSolutions shut a while back.. the bookmark checker deleted it from my bookmarks.. sad...it was pretty good.
Willie..the freebie section here has some easter eggs.. the ones i used for the easter card.. poser though...

LOL, Rosie.  Wrong kind of eggs...  By the way Steve's Art Gallery, also in Bryce Backroom has a good list of short cuts and easter eggs including the Anti-Alias one.   I copy/pasted his page to a word document in case it disappears forever like BSolution's.

Rosie, 'easter-eggs' refer to undocumented features in software applications. There are some funny ones about if you know where to look. I did hear tell of a MicroSoft one that featured photos of the programmer's children. In Bryce they are usually just key-strokes that make things happen that are not generally known.

 Here is a list of em:
