I love Bryce but I have not used it for a long time, now they have the upgrade for 20 something dollars. Extremely cheap but is Bryce pretty much the same? I have not seen a render with the hdri yet, all I see in the forums is mosltly the fractal terrains with funky skies and a water plane. I thing Bryce is a beautiful program but I have seen incredible and realistic landscapes with Terragen, I mean great skies, waves etc. The Bryce trees are cute but no realistci at all. Is a new Bryce in the making and is this reason for the wonderful price? Would my user materials of Bryce 5.0 work with Bryce 6.0?

Thanks for your help.
