Quote - > Quote - In win7 you can use readyboost to supplement your ram if you don't have the means to buy more ram. This means use a fast usb drive to supplement your ram. If you do have the means do upgrade your ram and operating system to win7 64bit to work on complex scenes and have multiple programs open in a bridge.

32 bit can still only address no more than 4GB regardless, even on a 64 bit computer, running a 64 bit OS even if you have 8TB of RAM. Bryce can only address 2 GB of RAM and if you open DS from Bryce, that still has to fit within those same 2GB. Windows will spool and use that full 4 GB of RAM, presuming it has free HD space.

 

4 GB RAM Max with a 3GB switch in Windows meaning a large address aware app like Daz Studo will see a max of 3GB RAM even when 4GB is installed just FYI.

This is how it works in case you want to read

Blender may be another option but it's a jack of many trades and requires you to get to know the interface pretty well before you can render Yosimite valley. Bryce seems to be falling further from Daz3d's rader latley so I'd be suprised if we see a re-write of it anytine soon.
