I love Bryce. 1) Interface feels natural 2) Easy button bars for all your needs 3) Big window approach to view 4) Materials Lab although I wish I knew it better 5) Import any object just about 6) Metaballs That is a start anyway. I think that there are a couple of things that would make it better. 1) Export any object. 2) A luminense control in the materials. 3) Better starfield creation. That is all I can think of for the moment. I will add as I get more. Jesterhawk

Well, I do like the Bryce interface. But to be able to continue to use all my Bryce stuff plus add the power of Mojoworld, I could learn a new interface. So, if that is the way it has to go then lets do it. Simply put, I love Bryce and have worked in it for years. I would hate to lose all that I have if I didn't have to. Jesterhawk

No, they didn't mention anything about textures, although I assumed that if you were going to import a whole scene then you would have to import the textures. However, that is my opinion. I agree. Bryce 3D is my first love as well. I would love to see it taken by someone (like Doc Mojo) who has a real love for it and will take it to the next level. Jesterhawk

Hello Again, I got an email from an E-On Software Customer Service rep and he informed me that as long as plans don't change, they plan to incorporate a Bryce importer into Vue 5. That would at least allow us to keep all our cool old Bryce stuff alive if Bryce goes away. On a side note, it would be really cool if someone could write a piece of software that could convert a Bryce Scene file to say a Lightwave scene or 3D Studio Max or something. Just rambling on this one. Thanks Jesterhawk

Well, I don't know if he is going to do it or not, but E-On software (the makers of Vue D'Sprit) has a survey online and the questions seem to indicate that they are considering purchasing Bryce. Don't know for sure, but you should all check it out. http://www.e-onsoftware.com/survey/ Jesterhawk

Hello, I would chip in some money to help. The problem is that I don't have much money. But you can have my $50. Just let me know where to send it. Also, I would love to see when it gets bought and worked on (and it will) a better export routine to allow for those of us who have friends who use other programs to share objects we create. Anyway, SAVE BRYCE, I love the program. Let me know what I can do at jesterhawk@yahoo.com. Thanks Jesterhawk

Sorry about that. It wasn't supposed to be. I misread the thing on the bottom here. I thought caption meant caption to your message and URL was for if you had a homepage. Sorry about the mixup :( I have deleted the message and will repost without the link. Jesterhawk
