Hi, this is a little off topic but, I have both vue I and carrara. Vue has very much better/easier to make landscaping and environments. It's really user friendly, and there is no problem importing poser stuff. Vue can very easilly make amazing scenary. carrara can too but it's more difficult I find. Quite a steep learning curve for scenary stuff. I don't think carrara plants are as good as vue plants either. I think the memory management is bettter in vue than carrara. However I think the carrara renderer is very much better, and I really enjoy shopping around for all the pluggins to do this and that. I particularly like the toon pro pluggin renderer (nothing like it is available for vue on a mac - skinvue doesn't work on macs). Toon Pro has some problems but I've worked a sort of way around these. Also, I never wanted to get into modelling but architools pluggin for carrara was on sale, so now I can make buildings if I wish. Carrara is really valuable to me because of the non-photorealistic capabilities with toon pro for my comic I am trying to make. So it doesn't matter to me if the plants don't look as real because I'm only going to toonify them anyway, and I'm sure if I want otheres I could just make them in vue and export. Poser and carrara play nice together too. I also have bryce (it was on sale at daz) but I've never really got into it as vue does all of that stuff more easilly I find. Love esther
