[quoteCarrara will not, however, re-open that file on my system (Poser handled a much more detailed scene with fewer problems).

I have Carrara Pro... Just got it because of the Christmas deal that they gave. With version 6.03, they fixed the Poser import. I have been able to get several poser projects into Carrara with no issues at all. The only issues I have had is with the "Constraints". Basically, something that is posed correctly in Poser winds up not being able to move to the point I expected it to. However, everything else seems to be pretty good.

Right now, I am trying to get the Light quality that I had with Vue Pro Studio to work in Carrara. I am not sure if it is possible but I think I am pretty close but Carrara does not have Volumetic Lighting model nor the Spectal atmosphere that is in Vue. However it does have sometime similar to the Ecosystems which is something that I was very happy to find!
