    ...as I understand the blank viewport had something to do with OpenGL compatibility. Mine is right at the bottom of the application's requirement which is probably why I can actually work with 4.5. Still have to go slow and work predominantly in simple/basic shaded mode when loading, arranging and posing.

    Yeah, a dedicated GPU more RAM and faster CPU with more cores will most definitely help the cause but I am still amazed at how fast the latest 3Delight is. I don't ever think I've had a full 800 x 800 render complete in less than a minute (particularly with IBL lighting) save for rendering with just the basic preview lights and no shadows.

    Hmm, not really. The Bryce forum is actually one of the ones I post in the least, it is a very well behaved forum, and they rarely need me to do much. Too many guru's posting there regularly, and they love helping the Bryce newbies.

    You are still creeping up on me, slowly but surely.

    I must have some obssesive condition.
    cannot stop mucking around with that dreamhouse.
    I loaded the entire dreamhouse via fbx from studio one bit at a time into iClone and it all loads fully textured I presume in wireframe but trying to bring up the quickshading ground my computer to a halt, iClone is using 5.5Gb of RAM in task manager and doing nothing (not responding)
    it really does not like lots of big textures!
    and yes, I can do massive models in bits in it if I use simple shaders in it, getting it in in bits the secret, as I said, untextured the bits load fine then using proceedural iClone materials can use it as a set to walk around, open doors etc.
    got me thinking, Daz studio a similar thing may work, using just colours for animation.

    and LOL! Windows just told me it has not got enough resources to run the Aero interface!!

    this is in iClone which is GPU based with realtime graphics, studio copes fine in wireframe and renders it albeit slowley with the CPU
    as does Carrara and Poser but quicker!
    I need to work in wireframe with it in Carrara to do animation ie pose, move figures around and cameras, but it renders fine.
    but it does load textured.
    studio you might just have to live with wireframe for setting up.

    ...actually nowhere near that as that is not how exponential powers work (e'g' 100 [10^2] is not 1/2 of 10,000 [10^4]). Every exponent value is ten multiplied by itself: 10^2: 10 x 10 =100, 10^3: 10 x 10 (100) x10 = 1,000, 10^4: 10 x 10 (100) x10 (1,000) x 10 = 10,000, etc.

    So a 1 with 50 zeroes is ten multiplied by itself 50 times over.

    A googul is 10^100. or 1 with 100 zeros after it is ten multiplied by itself 100 times over:

    10,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000,­000

    A GoogolPlex (10^[googul]) is 10^(10^100), one with a googol zeroes after it - a ridiculously huge number

    ...astronomer...Carl Sagan estimated that writing a googolplex in standard form (i.e., "10,000,000,000...") would be physically impossible, since doing so would require more space than the known universe provides.

    Consider printing the digits of a googolplex in unreadable, one-point font (0.353 mm per digit). It would take about 3.5×10^96 metres to write a googolplex in one-point font. The observable universe is estimated to be 8.80×10^26 meters, or 93 billion light-years, in diameter,[2] so the distance required to write the necessary zeroes is 4.0×10^69 times as long as the estimated universe.

    The time it would take to write such a number also renders the task implausible: if a person can write two digits per second, it would take around about 1.51×10^92 years, which is about 1.1×10^82 times the age of the universe, to write a googolplex.

    A googulplex is a large number but it is no where near infinity. Infinity is bigger than ten to the googluplex power.

He went back into time as early as he could many times in many locations across the known universe but that was not enough. He always tried to find new places to discover.

    I think your number is a bit high for this purpose -- if you're restricting him to this universe, as opposed to a string of sequential universes, that makes him old enough to not only live from the big bang to the heat death of the universe repeatedly, but for him to BE every multi-celled organism in the universe.
