heyas; vue 4 doesn't read p5 files yet. it reads poser 4 files. (pz3's.) actually, you can try importing a p5 pz3 (don't compress it to a pzz), and if you didn't do anything TOO fancy, it should work. check the vue forum for more tests and results of importing p5 stuff into vue 4. as for carrara vs rhino: you have to try both. cararra is a vertex modeller, rhino is a nurbs modeller. they're totally different. it depends on how you like to model. i like rhino quite a bit, and i used to use cararra's predecessor ray dream.... i don't like how rhino handles nurb to polygon translation, though. and poser uses polys. you can get a trial version of rhino. probably also of cararra. check 'em out. (see, i told you these guys would be more help ;) )
