Dear renderdog2000
So, along with all the rest, (especially the Vray, if possible), if you could als fit it with one of the FREE modeling programs (i.e. Anim8or, or some such), you'd have a very nifty app that could indeed be a poor man's replacement for Max and Maya!  Also,like Max, try to give us a larger default woorkspace all around, with less intrusive meus and tool bars.  Also, a beautiful feature of Max is the multiple ways that one can do the same task, i.e. icon click on a toolbar, click on a drop down menu, of right click the view port and select from what's know as the 'Quad-Menu.'  Each of these methods is to enable one to have multiple access to the exact same tool or task, and being able to choose which method best suits whatever worker, his mood, and the task at hand.
Yours truly,
David P. Hoadley
