Greetings all!

I'm wondering what are Bryce's limits? What's the maximum number of objects that can be loaded into a project? Maximum file size?

I'm working on a spaceship corridor, designing one segment of the corridor at a time. It works fine until I copy/paste many of these segments. Bryce becomes too slow then panning and zooming, so I made other project files and have merged them together. The editor behaves okay...still takes 10 minutes when I select a new object for Bryce to actually grab hold of it; but when I go to render, on the first pass of rendering Bryce crashes. One other computer I could use, but if that fails there, I may upload just a segment instead of a full scene.

So, any ideas of Bryce's limits?

I don't believe there are any limits with the software, but there are limits when you start talking about a computers amount of RAM.

As far as panning & zooming, you've got the merge plan down, don't forget about reducing the wireframe resolution, that will help. And, with a lot objects in a scene, once I have a group of objects set in the scene where they are supposed to be, I will go into the Attributes and select "Show As Box". This will help a lot with reducing the amount of wireframes that need to be processsed in your gui.
