What is Bryce?

---

Bryce is a stand-alone application that allows you to create and animate three-dimensional virtual environments.

With Bryce you can create any type of environment you can envision, from the ivory beaches of Tahiti to the silvery rings of Saturn. Bryce user interface contains all the tools you'll need to create your environments.

For example, Bryce includes controls for managing infinite skies that let you set everything from time of day to the color and frequency of clouds. Using the sky controls, you can also set light direction, sun/moonlight, atmospheric depth haze (with intensity and color), height fog (with height, intensity, and color), and multiple sky color components.

You can also use Bryce controls to create a wide variety of objects you can use to populate your environment. You can use the Terrain editor to create an infinite number of custom terrains, which you, in turn, use to create landscapes.

The realism of a Bryce environment largely depends on the materials applied to the objects in the scene. Materials are complex combinations of textures and values. The Materials Lab lets you combine textures and channel values that simulate any material found in the real world (and a few that aren't!).

When you have set up your environment just the way you want it, you can add a fourth dimension-time. You can use Bryce's animation tools to set up landscapes that move and materials that change over time.
