Any Bryce users here? If so, would you compare the two. I have Bryce4, had it for 3 months, never loaded it. I am still trying to learn Poser. Just from the images that I have seen ... I really like Vue better... any imput? Thanks niles

Vue = Better The art here speaks volumes. Bryce has it's points but not as many.

Here you go Niles, at the link. We've had alot of discussions around here about this, and rather than rehashing it all, it'd be best to refer you to them. :)

I purchased Bryce 5 also along with Vue 4 just because i had the money at the time. And I use Vue 4 completely. For a number of reasons: 1- The vegetation is simply awesome 2- The material editor is as simple or as complex as you want to make it. 3- Love the terrain editor (What more can I say :) 4- From what I have seen and I am relatively new to both these products (just a couple weeks) but Vue 4 has a much better render engine from what i have seen. 5- Get Vue why not it's only $199.00 :) and you get to hang with all of us here at the forum. A very helpful, inspirational and motivated group of people. Hope this helps!!

thanks guys, no need for more replies. I just read the old post. I think I will try them both, again thanks Niles

I am just like vibes30, did exactly the same thing, and agree with vibes30. Sharen

Used Bryce almost since it began, and for just $50 more than the upgrade from 4 to 5, I got this amazingly easy and powerful program with faster renders, easier animations, veggies that look right, and a much nicer color tone. All I want now is something that will convert all my bryce files to .vue!

Niles, don't forget, by owning Bryce there is a special competitive upgrade price for Vue 4. That makes it even easier to get Vue. :)

You guys forgot to mention that Vue is alot more Poser friendly. :)
