hcherney,
Oooh yes, be very excited indeed! There's lots of lovely new stuff, we've had the priviledge of testing 3 new beta versions already - you can too, at least you can try the lastest version - IF you already own Bryce6, all you need to do is request a reset of your Bryce6 download from your Daz Account and a few minutes later up will pop the latest Bryce7 beta version.
If you didn't download Bryce6 from Daz but bought it in a boxed version from somewhere - and still have your receipt - contact Daz and explain, might have to email them a scan of your receipt - and then they'll release a download of the beta for you.
Then you just need the serial number from the 1st page of the DazBeta Development Thread, this will just last until next Tuesday, when we've been promised yet another beta with even more surprises, they are saying now that they've got a Particle Generator, and two videos demonstrate this on pages 62 and 63 of the thread. We've already got a first version (not finalised yet) of instancing, better lights, better HDRI, ooh lots of stuff, don't forget though that these are just tests, but it's been such fun to try eveything out like this!
If you don't have Bryce6 but still want to join in, you can buy Bryce6 from Daz right now, and get in on the testing of betas, this is a good idea anyway - in my opinion - since they will (I think they said somewhere) give a discount on the price of Bryce7 - to those who own Bryce 6 when it comes out - you get even more discount if you're a Platinum Club member I believe too.
Gawd, I sound like an advert! Sorry about that - it's enthusiasm.
