Most users will know that you can use Photoshop filters in Bryce for creating and editing terrains. As i know, there is a filter bundle from the Bryce Creators. Does anyone know the name from this filter package ? I forgot the name. This filter package is specifically create for Bryce.

edit: Where i can download this filters ? As i know, this filters are free.

    @Roland4 - Bryce 4 had the Kay's KTP3 filters for for the Picture textures. They still work in Bryce 7.1 and I use them sometimes. If you have Photoshop filters, you can add the path to them in the Picture dialogue by clicking on the down arrow next to a picture texture. Since Bryce 5, no Photoshop filters are included as far as I know.

    This is a guide on using the Terrain Editor and near the bottom it mentions using the Photoshop Filters

    Exactly this filter bundle i mean. During installation, the installer asks for the folder of Bryce The correctly name is Kai`s Power Tools. The version i mean is KPT 3. This filter bundle is komplett free. Does anyone have this bundle and can it send me by mail ?

    No, not legally. The only person who can redistribute anything is the person who produced it.

    Thanks Sandy, I wonder how I missed it, Robin Wood's tutorials are my main source of reference, I keep going back to them. Talk about old age ;)

    I have Kay's Power Tools from Bryce 4 and just copied them into the Bryce folder but it could be anywhere. Here's a landscape I made more than 2 years ago. The sawtooth frames are because the filters are only 8-bit, not 16 as required for the TE. The hands are MatCreator's Alien Artefact #2, the mirror balls I put in them. Backdrop and light from the Tourbillon Tower HDRI.

    The problem is, that the installer itself not run on Windows 8 and so i can not install this tools. If the tools installed on a nother computer, then i can copied the files / filters in my bryce folder and then is ok, but i have only a laptop with Windows 8.

    The question is whether we need external filters. Bryce have fantastic Filters integrated, but first you must lern it.

    @Roland4 - if you have a legal copy of KPT3, you may have to install them as Administrator. However, these are only files and do not need an installer. Unpack and copy to a folder of your choice is all there is to it. And you're quite right: Bryce has so many gems like the filters in TE but it needs a bit of time to get acquainted to everything.

    The file i download is a archiv and a legal copy. If i unpack this archiv then there are the folowing files and i run the installer as Admin:

    @Roland4 - from the file dates, it looks right. It may be that you got the ones for the Mac, not for the PC.

    @Roland4 - then it seems to be a Win 8 problem. I don't use it so I cannot help, sorry.

    I have seen, in quite a few threads, posts by people who have programs that worked in Win 7 and now won't work in Win 8.

    I have seen posts where people suggest running Win 8 in compatibility mode to make it think it is an earlier version of windows. Have you tried that?
