Strange indeed

What do i know ...i'm from denmark LOL

Amature:
From the Latin "amator:" lover, devoted friend, devotee, enthusiastic pursuer of an objective

Not a bad adjective :-)

Yes porbably - have you browsed the gallery ? - think there are some really good images in there :-)

I use 6.1 - and have in 2 ocassions experienced that becaus one ot of three pc's stopped responding the whole animation was lost - guess its another thing when you start and stop a pc in the renderfarm  with purpose:-)

Tht is not going to work - bryce is unforgiving ...one pc down in your renderfarm - and the whole thing goes bananarama

LMAO

Yes powerfailure is a killer when rendering direct to AVI from bryce - (I cant figure out why they haven't made  the possibility to stop and resume rendering to AVI's and for the matter rendering to disk - some old old old programs like Vista Pro 4 has that abillity)

Regarding freeware that can combine sequences of images i can recomend VirtualDubMod - im not absolutely sure that it can take BMP's - but many programs can batch-process converting of BMP's to JPG's - furthermore it can recompress to almost any given codec (that is if you have the codec installed of cause) - in my experience DivX and XviD codecs with a datarate of 2000 is almost as good as DVD quality

And yes ...have fun

Hi there
You can render it from bryce to uncompreesed AVI - that would be lossless - however - you cant stop rendering at a given time and then pick up rendering again later. Bryce doesn't allow that.
You can chose the approach of rendering frame by frame to BMP - that would give you the possibility to pick up rendering at any given frame in the animation. I've made a 20 sec animation in 800*600 render with 255 in quality on a quad core 2,9 ghz pc doing nothing else - it took a week to render !!!!!! - Now maybe the quality setting is overkill as animation alwyas introduces some kind of bluring - so maybe one could settle with a lesser quality ..haven't experimented with that. As for the framerate most standalone players and/or PC's can play the videos with the proper framerate for the particular country - good luck with you animation and may you be patient :-)

Well i do agree with all 3 previous.  (thanks dhama for selecting one of mine :-) ) - erosiaart ...really like the part with keeping me out of trouble :-)
What i love the most i think is that bryce has almost endlessly possibilities - and you can express so many different styles - both in figurative and non-figurative. I like that it leaves space for both the beginner and the advanced - the completly abatract nerd and the most photorealistc

I JUST LOVE BRYCE

Congrats on your new machine :-)
Yes - its fantastic rendering with 4 CPU's - i normally sit by my old 2 core cpu and model - the i copy it to my 4 cpu - and what a difference - it's almost 66% faster even though the speed of the cpu of my old machine is a bit faster - looking forward to see 8 CPU machines - or to the time in far far far future when daz will do something about the renderengine in Bryce :-)

Was at work here in Denmark just before leaving from work when a co-worker told me that his wife had phoned that the TT was hit by an aeroplane - got home and switched on the TV - then the second plane hit i think - and i remeber i was thinking "This is not happening" - i got a TOTAL and i mean TOTAL sence of surrealism - and then i thought of how much evil and hate this was an expression of

Excellent !!!! :-) :-) :-)

Hi nukeboy

Well i guess it handles the communication and activation of DS and the back and forth communication between DS and Bryce - anyways - i had the same error (as many others) - and at DAZ3D one of the guys suggested the above solution except he called it bryce.exe.manifest - which didn't work - then another guy in another thread here at R someone suggested the above solution with naming it bryce6.exe.manifest which worked like a charm - reinstallation diddn't !!!

Best regards

Hello NukeBoy

You should create a file in your bryce directory named:

bryce6.exe.manifest

It should contain the following wich you can put in with notepad:
