Okay, been to the site, looked it over. Still don't know WTF it is. You'd think they'd say "this program does x, y & z" but it doesn't to my understanding. It's like reading a fortune 500 mission statement. Sorry for the cynicism, but I'm curious if this piece of software is something I 'Gottahaveitcantlivewithoutit" or "meh". You never know when you'll find that ever important app.

I've had a blast beta testing this! $79.00 USD is a decent price IMHO. Can't wait to get this. :) Download the trial version you'll love it. There's really nothing else like it!"Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication." Leonardo da Vinci

Limited free upgrade for those of us that bought the Mac OS9 version or full Mac/PC upgrade for 30$. Soon as it's active going to get both versions! I always thought something like this would make an intetesting "quasi" modeler for Bryce. Thanks Sophies!

Me too AS - Only I've been waiting for it to hit 2.0 to get it off Mac classic. it's kind of like L-systems on autopilot. Xfrog uses L-systems but they are a lot less fun to use than the ones in Groboto - woohoo - finally an OSX version. Those are the most trippy animations - remind me of those bad bots in the matrix.
Me too Dan - the models would be a blast to light and render with HDRI in Bryce.
It looks like it renders in openGL - which means animations should be really fast and easy to create with a decent graphics card.
Sophies - thanks for the heads up. I've been waiting so long for 2.0 I thought it would never happen.
I can't wait to play with the OSX demo.

gee i'm interested in looking/getting this but i have to sweet talk my lovely wife into buying me Universe Image Creator plugin and a couple of nice bryce models, drawbridgep's Drag trike and his AH-9100 plus Rochr The Machine. Oh trust me there are a few more models i would like but these three are first on the list then i will get back into using bryce.
I have opinions of my own -- strong
opinions -- but I don't always agree with them.

It would be nice, though, if in the meantime they went ahead and activated the links to download and test their demo software...
mboncher posted Thu, 16 November 2006 at 11:30 AM
I still don't know what I'm waiting for... :c/ But then again, if I buy any software, Bryce 6 is top of my list.

the demo is now available for download :)have fun!

Starting to play with it and the simple tuts. Very weird - this stuff is just screaming to be exported and rendered. Hmmm - I'll have to think a little about the pricetag. I wish they would at least let us do test renders with a watermark. The demo is pretty well disabled.

Exciting program, every sample file results in a 1-2 min eggtimer whenever the cursor is moved, the "reset document" results in a frozen program. There are programs that can do that for far less than $79.
XP3000 2Gb mem Nvid6800 Win XP sp2 , XP64-3000 1Gb mem NVid7300 Win XP sp2 (test box , no software but Win XP and the program to test) , both systems same result.

Hmmmm. The demo works perfectly on my 2 machines. No hesitations at all. One is a lowly laptop, and my main PC which is an AMD 64 3800 with 4 GBs RAM. Both on WinXP SP2.

Yep I was a Beta tester also for this.
It's way fun and screaming fast. You gonna like :)
