WOW! That worked so fast. Gotta have this video in my collection of tutorials! I had been searching for a way to do exactly these effects! Thanks a Billion!

BEAUTIFUL AND FAST THANKS!!!

[@davidbrinnen]

Yeah, seems there's always something new to discover if you experiment a bit.

I have problems trying to get the lab materials you show in this video. I like to know if there is an other way for u can get them. Thanks

[@davidbrinnen]

If you own Bryce 7.1 then the materials are a free download. Often it is easy to miss this. However Horo provides a guide on his website. horo.ch/docs/mine/pdf/BryceContent_v4.pdf

For some reason I'm not getting the bit depth option when I export HDRI. I only get 24-bit HDRI. I don't know if it causes problems, but my starburst background doesn't look like the one David gets when I apply it. It's got the feint beams, but no white starburst from their center. As far as I could tell I didn't miss a step. Still, just finding out that you can create a starburst using mirror infinite planes was worth watching the tut. Thanks David. EDIT: I fiddled around with the Yaw/Pitch/Roll ball and found my starburst, but it's acting really wonky.

[@davidbrinnen]

Not sure why you would get different export options. Check you are using the most up to date version of Bryce 7.1 kzbin.info/www/bejne/eITanKR8eL1jfMk As for the star burst, well there are a few variables to play with here, try scaling the mirror group or fiddling with the fog thickness. Wonkyness may be a mapping issue. Again, try experimenting with the mirror positions.

[@My2Cents1]

I fiddled around with the Yaw/Pitch/Roll ball and found my starburst "spot". It's acting really wonky, but at least it worked. and it was a matter of how the background was aligned. First I thought it was the bit-depth issue, but that seemed to make no difference in the end. Thanks Mr Brinnen.
