Quote - Have you looked at the features of Carrara? (I know I hadn't for a long time)

It's complex to start with, lol.

Scroll down this C5.1 list;

WOW!!! The last time I used Carrara was version 1: they have come a long way before selling it to Daz. The Tree Modeler looks like it would be fun to check out. I wouldn't be surprised if down the road Daz decides to incorporate the best of Bryce's features into Carrara and offers a special price to existing Bryce users in order to eventually discontinue Bryce as a separate program. Bryce users may not like that idea at first, but that route would eliminate the many Bryce Wish List listed at the Daz site.
