Tunesy, If you can't give your friend your old version of Carrara, there are lots of good freeware 3D programs out there. The link below has a list of some freeware apps and their download links. http://www.computerarts.co.uk/downloads/3d__and__animation?result_page=2 I downloaded Blender and now use it for polygon modelling. If I couldn't afford Carrara, I'd be using Blender full-time. Just a thought. :-)
