I not having much luck using Bryce's instancing to place plants on terrain. The instance tool just shows a grid for the terrain so putting instances along a river, on hill tops, or in an area is difficult.

So here is a thread for us to post information about using instancing in Bryce.

Here's what I've found so far.

- You can make a few instances to use as markers defining an area where you want instances. Move them in the main view and you can see them in the instance tool.

- Parts of the terrain that are below zero elevation don't show in the instance tool. Useful for rivers, beaches, hill tops.

Does this help?
