As two of the other posts stated, I get an error message when I try to render. It fails with imported pz3s' and it failed when I tried to render the Egyptian background that Daz provides. I. as alot of people was planning on getting Bryce 5 from Daz. I have Vue, but getting Bryce for under 40 bucks is just to tempting. I've downloaded and installed Studio 3 times all with the same result. I use Windows Xp pro, pentium 4, and have 2 gig of ram. Since I'm here, I find the my willingnes to learn studio to be very slight. It's a lot different then poser and I'm not certain what the upside is to learn a new program that can do the same/less then a program I already know how to use. Hope you all had a nice 4th. Bill
