Analog-X,**

I** agree. That aside. I felt that I should post this information here not because of the way in which the problem is being handled, but because I have been seeing a lot of chat posted here about problems everyone seems to be having with the latest version of Bryce.

So well I understand what you're saying, I felt it was more important to alert people to the fact that DAZ is aware of the problem. And what steps we can take to become part of the answer.

So like you, I feel that by my calling them should have been enough. It’s not my job to report to their development team.  However at this point I just want the software I have used for years to be fixed.

So for now I’ll play their game. That doesn’t mean you have to.

Up date to my earlier post. 

This is the email I was sent from Adam Brown of DAZ support.

"Hi Vincent,

*Unfortunately, this is still a new issue that has arisen in Bryce for some Mac users.  I strongly urge you to report this to our 'Bug Reporter.'  This goes to our software Q.A. and software developers.  This part of our website requires a separate login and password for your privacy. *

* *

Several Mac users of Bryce have been reporting this issue to us, beginning about two weeks ago.  The most recently released build of Bryce was about two months ago.  It is very important that our customers who are experiencing this issue report it through our bug reporter so that our developers and Q.A. can have something to work with.

* *

These are the common issues I’ve observed:

Unable to import/export file (“File not found”)

Unable to render to disk

Unable to render animation (Bryce crashes when ‘Output Module’ is selected)

* *

*We have been able to duplicate this issue, but only if we wipe the Mac clean and install Bryce 6 without any prior version of it having been installed.  It is for this reason that we did not earlier discover the issue."

I well keep everyone posted.

I've been having software problems as of late. I didn't get to enter. But I can still vote.  :}

Loved all the work done.  Here's my vote.

1 Point -Riquelme8

Thanks

Thanks Dan again. I found the version of my software.  It's 6.1.12.4  So do I need to download the latest version? I don't seem to se any patch.

Thanks Dan. I got your message in DAZ Bug Tracker. I'll look for my version. But you may note that I'm having other problems as well. Also I have been adding the .br6 extension manually. I noticed that issue early on. It still dosen't work.

Bryce6.0:

  Version:    1.0
  Last Modified:    3/8/07 7:40 PM
  Kind:    Universal

This is all I come up with when I looked for the version of my software.

Mac Mini 2.0GHz Intel Duo Core processor with 2GB of RAM

I’m not sure of the exact version I’m running. I don't seem to find the exact version on it. I bought it about a year ago if that helps.
I know it was upgraded for duo core processors.

I just submitted a query through DAZ report bugs to see if I can get any insight as to what mite be causing this problem.

I thought I was the only one who was having this problem. I’m having the same thing happing to me.

I've been working on a scene for a month now. The first time I saved the scene, closed out and came back to work on it some more, the program crashed. After about the third time this happened, I check the file size and saw it was huge. I just decided not to save what I was working on and render at the same time.
I haven’t quit out of the Bryce in a month. So now I’m rendering and that's taking forever. Pray I don't freeze.

I haven't started my garden because of this.

Me think it’s time to search the web for answers. I’ll let you know what I find.

I should also add the some very good links have been added here that are a good place to start.

comixnut,

Not yet. But it looks as though the Group Mind is coming to our aide.
If you have read any of the posts, you'll see that many have the same needs as me aas well as  you. It also seems many are willing to share the information gained over the years. It was my hope that this would get the ball rolling to benefit all.

Stay tuned to see what happens next.

I hope this benefits everyone. I still wish someone or even DAZ would put out a high quality printed tutorial.

Happy to have got the ball rolling.

How can I get a copy? From my limited understanding it is okay to reprint or in this case PDF as long as it is not done for profit. So PLEASE PDF away. At the very least do you remember the original site?

BTW. Like your work.

Ture. But we don't know what type system is being used. So let's start with the basics.
