Aaaand... I'm not done yet. :P Bryce is rendering as we speak.

Although now I have to figure out how to keep Daz from breaking poses. This is gonna need some postwork. Grrr.

Are you using Bryce to render your images and still posing the images in Daz?

Pose in Poser, a little texture tweaking in DAZ, and render in Bryce.

My previous stuff has been Poser only. this was an experiment.

Nice. I think I've settled in on Carrara 6. I have 5 and I really like the interface. I have Bryce, just have never been able to figure it out. I may send you a pm or two on how you import into Bryce.

I used to use a program called "Ray Dream Designer". I followed Ray Dream through several versions, until suddenly they announced they were changing their name and becomming a new thing called "Carerra". I tried the first version and wasn't impressed, but that was 6 - 7 years ago.

Has Carerra come along over the years? Hearing people use it is kinda like visiting an old high-school - lots of memories.

I prever Vue Infinite for rendering my scenes because of the seamless Poser imports. It's definitely coming into it's own as a renderer. If only they'd add animated particle effects.

I've thought about dropping the dough for Vue.

I picked up Bryce as a freebie (after YEARS of paying for previous versions).

Heard about Carrera, never used it.

I got my start with POV-Ray, back when there wasn't a Windows version (had to run it in a DOS instance under 3.11). Was using a modeling interface called Moray, which was great except it had a tendency to switch the 'handedness' of the XYZ coordinates...

Though I like/am familiar with the interface of Carrara, I choose it for a few reasons but I think the fact that the new version will be able to import directly from Daz and or use Daz/Poser materials directly (like Poser and Daz) was very important to me. Throw in the fact that in renders a lot better than DazStudio, can do that cool lighting stuff, animate, do some (not dedicated 3-D modeling program caliber but some 3-D modeling), will have dynamic hair, clothing, etc and by buying Carrara 5 for 80 bucks, Carrara 6 is free and well, I'm cheap, I admit it.

Ray Dream is personally responisble for me intially swearing off 3-D and not coming back till Poser when I was promtly scared away again. I'm not ashamed to say Ray Dream open up a can on me. I'm having fun using Carrara 5 though I probably will not give up the "old shoe" till Carrara 6 comes along. It promises to work "seamlessly" with DazStudio.... well see. I tried Vue and liked it. Just don't have the coin for the real version. If the state lottery would co-operate, I would'nt have these problems.
