2. I don't have the answer, but I do humbly request a favor |
|
Please don't add to the heap of images of 'ooo mystical orbs' hovering over a seasscape.
That is all. Thank you.

3. Have you figured out how to apply materials to an object? |
|
Once you have that down, rendering and saving are easy...once you find them in the Bryce interface.
Material selector is the little "M" box attached to your wireframe...click it to pull up your material control panel. Choose your material, and click the little "check mark" in the lower right corner to apply it.
To render, click the big shaded "orb" at the bottom of the camera control interface (all the little arrows and stuff to the left of your viewport). The orb will turn red while it's rendering, and you'll see a timer on the bottom left of the screen telling you estimated elapsed time for each rendering pass.
To adjust how it renders, click the little tiny "down arrowhead" to the right of the "render" orb, just on the edge of your viewport. Set it to a low quality render at first to get your instant gratification, then set it to higher for a final rendering.
Once it's finished rendering, bump the top of the desktop with your mouse (if running in full screen mode) to drop down the traditional looking drop down windows menus, and pick "Save Image as..." under "File" to save your rendered image to disk. There you can choose what type to save as (tiff, jpg, etc.).
When you get to doing *large* projects, instead of rendering to screen, you can choose "Render To Disk" and choose a custom resolution to save to (I typically save as 3000x2000 pixels for printing as 12"x18" prints.) Once you do this option...walk away and go to bed...this can take hours even on a fast machine.
Hope this helps, and PM me if you have any more questions.
Hammies!
