hi

I do some Bryce for a long time now, and the User Interfaces of Poser and Bryce are sort of similar (well, both invented by the great  Kai Krause).

As usual, cameras, lights and advanced aspects of materials do not transfer well between 3D applications. The Bryce render is famous for its handling of refractions and reflections as its a real raytracer, and is quite infamous for its lack of speed. Bryce itself is great for its fantasy environments, like Vue is the app of choice for realistic ones.

For transferring Poser figures and scenes into Bryce, I can recommend using Daz Studio as the interface. Start Bryce, launch DS from there, open the Poser files in DS and save back into Bryce. As an extra, library tools like P3dO which also work great in DS now still can be used (to fill the DS part).

Do note that when working this way, the DS scene is connected into Bryce and will have some points of attention when rescaling and updating. But you can disconnect portions of it, which means these part are turned into Bryce content.

Have fun

Usually I'm wrong. But to be effective and efficient, I don't need to be correct or accurate.
