Quote - Sorry, but it's just that i'm used to forums where some people at least reply if they view, and when over 50 people view and not reply, it seems like no one is interested.

I will continue with my step by step guide tutorial for landscapes that i'm currently workibing on. Might take a little while to complete.

Hey dhama, I just came in on the "rat's end" of the forum and just happened to read your very helpful tips on landscape. Don't give up. It takes time before someone who's looking for tips and guide into Bryce's misunderstood landscaping, will happened upon your thread. Soooo

My point is: I'm interested!!!

**Welcome.  Are you game then?

Yeah I'm game... As a matter of fact, I am going to upload the sphere over at the CGsphere. And a different one here of course, when I get both of them ready ...

Quote - http://www.cgsphere.com/ <-- something like this? :-)

Interesting!!! Thanks for the welcome... :m_grin:

Quote - Well thank goodness for that.

I just hope we'll be able to find "All Brycetech Tutorials" when we want to, cos they don't seem to be too good at organising over at Daz, & it used to be laid out so simply on "brycetech.com"

Most of the pictures are gone. But you can make out what it is you have to do if you're already familiar with Bryce. Some of the links are still good as are some of the download files which has textures and images and maps, etc. Not all of the zipped files are good. It's like finding gold or platinum  under a lot of p**p. Just have to take a chance and see.  Anyway, some of those files are like version 4 but you can still use it if you know how.

Just spent the last 3 hours going thru the wayback site looking thru the website and saving the pages from the tuts. Now I know how to make Bryce rain! :m_coolsmirk:

I will like to lend my voice to the outcry... Bring back BT's tuts! On almost every tutorial resource page, there was always a link or lots of links to BT's tutorials. Imagine my chargrin when I got those dreaded
" We're sorry the file you are looking for no longer exists or has been moved.
You asked for:
http://www.brycetech.com/tutorials.html
We couldn't find it. If you really think this should have been here, please Contact Us."

GRRRRRR!!!! I was so :m_angry:  that I started  :m_bawling:  I'm alright now, knowing that BT is still among the living... I don't have to :m_whine: anymore... :m_laugh:

Thanks for that tip for the trip to wayback site... I saved a few pages of the tuts.

and that's CAPTAIN jack bikermouse.

As the good AgentSmith once said: "...Some of you are truely lazy..." I count myself there . I mention this because you should provide a link for those of us who are well all of that.

Sorry about that. I am new to the mechanics of this forum. Making links is one of them http://www.renderosity.com/mod/gallery/index.php?image_id=1570366 Is where the image reside in the gallery here.

Can this sub as the proverbial SOW? Or do I still have to produce the SOW product? Don't worry. I'll do the proverbial SOW... Sounds like a fun thing... :lol:

Having done one render of the proverbial SOW on another site, guess I will have to produce or create another one for this gallery... Wondering if it's worth the trip to the mountain... Think you can lend me the plane fare to go to the Bahamas, so I can sit on the warm pink sand and work up this SOW render? :m_wink:

Quote - My apologies to the Lakota Nation and my friends in the Native American Church - all in fun.

I just knew that you were going to post this... Not surprised at all... Thanks for honoring them. :m_wink: Don't worry. I'll post the link to my gallery soon...

Quote - O. K. here's the scivy - first you go without eating for seven days. then and only then take a laptop up to the highest mountain you can find (you will need to bring lots of extra battery packs or a very  long extension chord) and render a sphere over water. there are details I cannot relate to you at this point as I have been drinking and the spirits consider it disrepectful to talk of such things in an altered state. 
but this is called 'the vision quest'.

coming off the mountain you ponder the visions you had up on the mountain while looking at the render of the sphere you created in Bryce over water while there for another seven days - you still may not eat but you can drink as much Guiness as you want during this time - and no you can't drink and drive. As you may know other tribes have other rituals such as the Poser Tribe's NVIATWAS. I won't go into details as even mentioning what the initals NVIATWAS stand for as they are distainful to us and cause us much pain even to think aboot. 
this is called 'interpreting the vision quest'.

now you are ready to tell others of your vision: 
You make renders of your inmterpretation of your quest linking to them from the forum here and asking people what they think of your render. When everyone agrees that they are tired of giving you endless pointers then you will be a warrior in the Bryce tribe and if you haven't died of starvation can start eating again.
this part is called 'telling others of your vision'.

   or...

you could just start posting your renders(link to them when you can.). The SOW is sort of an inside joke (don't tell anyone though.) 

cheers,
-TJ

:m_laugh: :m_laugh:   Oooookkkkkkaaayyyyy.... Let me get my favorite beverage mix and retire to the throne room... I do better vision quest when I sit on my throne, reading the comic panel of my favorite daily newspaper...  :m_wink:   I'll post you a link to my gallery when I have more posted. Right now I just uploaded a render of Robby Red, the red robot, a cousin of Robby the robot from Forbidden Planet.  More renders to be posted soon.

Quote - *"What is baptism by fire is a noobie supposed to undergo here?"- * The universal requirement, for those new to the Bryce Forum is to render and post a SOW (Sphere Over Water) picture, or some variation thereof. It's de rigueur!

Where??? Here in this forum? Or in the Gallery??? :m_scared:

To both danamo and ICM: :m_handshake: Thanks

Hehehe.... I just loved reading all of the friendly banter between the long time folks of the forum. Have a question, tho. What's up with the comfy chair? And why is everybody afraid of it?

By way of introduction, I am new to these parts. A noobie to this forum but not to Bryce. What is baptism by fire is a noobie supposed to undergo here?
