I used Bryce for a long time before I began using Vue 3.x. Then it was a matter of which one I thought fit the project better. Then Bryce 5 and Vue 4 came out. I bought Vue 4 first and immediately fell in love with it all over again. I have been playing with Bryce 5 from time to time on the machine of a co-worker. I prefer Vue 4 hands down. There are three major advanatges Vue 4 has over Bryce 5, especially if you are interested in frequent importing of Poser files - 1.) Vue 4 imports Poser .pz3 files directly without the need for any third-party software. 2.) Bryce is distributed and "supported" by Corel. Vue is not. 3.) With Bryce, you must deal with Corel. With Vue, you do not. Both are great programs, especially for the price. The three reasons stated above, however, gives the decided edge to Vue in my opinion. Take care and be well. casamerica
