Well I would like to see animation import capabilities. I would also like to say that I don't blame Coral for the lack of it ( for poser anyway ). When I bought into the idea of one company manufacturing all my software, it seemed like a great idea. Surely with one company creating all the 3D software ( I needed ) it would only be a matter of time before they worked together totally... ( wrong ). After I bought Bryce I contacted Metacreation and was told Poser animation to Bryce was one of the priority on the list. So I bought Posers and RDS, then KPT 5 & 6. Next I was getting painter 6, but as we all know Meta... dropped the ball, and dumped their software. For what Metastream....LOL ... Now for the Poser to Bryce it will have to be with the cooperation of Curious Labs. It wouldn't surprise me if CL says we want a License for each computer running Bryce Lighting to render the animation. What I would like to see is Plug-in support, and let the 3rd party developers go to town. Hey BT... you want fast rendering ( without loss of quality ) Try Electric Image Universe. What takes Max, Lightwave or C4 one or two hours to render, can be rendered in EIU in 12 to 15 minutes. ( character animation too ) It also has ( what some users say ) the best modeler available. With it's ACIS technology and a tool set that's fantastic. Not only NURBS curves, but NURBS suffices and solids, with subdividing.
