Er Thanks, but neither of you came close to answering any of the questions in my post. Upgrading Bryce was the only thing that WASN'T a question. I will certainly look for back issues of 3D World Magazine. (Thanks for the tip) but hey, will I get the distinct body parts in Bryce 3d? Do I need version 4? 5? And what about the .obj question? Perhaps someonelse can shed some light.
