Yes, I know it specifies Bryce. But does anybody know if it can be successfully sent over the Bryce Bridge into DAZ Studio? Or is there an obj file that can be impoted into DAZ Studioi?

Thanks for any help,

    Batting for the other team, there's also a very nice-looking Typhoon-class boomer. I'd like to know as well. One thing, though, these models are quite old now; are they still good by modern standards?

    Well, I see it is on sale today;  but I only want it if I can get it into DAZ Studio

    In answer to my own question:

    I finally broke down and bought it anyway. I opend it in Bryce and exported it as an object. The export process was successfull without crashing; but it did take nearly an hour on my computer. I then imported it into DAZ Studio. Although the results were not spectacular, they were adequate for my current needs.  A couple of quick test renders are attached; one plain and one underwater.

    I haven't played around with Bryce so I can't really comment. Interesting though that in this model/submarine design there isn't a small "deck" at the top of the tower where M4 and V4 (say) can get out and grab some fresh air?

    I've played around a bit with a Poser model of the Titanic that was available on the Smith-Micro web site IIRC... not bad, worked reasonably well in DS.

    I once had a tour of an old diesel-electric submarine... pretty neat to say the least. We (civilians) had to slide in via the torpedo-loading thing which was a shiny steel tube set at about at thirty-degree angle.
