Thanks StealthWorks. With your comment 'I just downloaded the demo and it looks fantastic!', you just made my day.

Because your comment is a reminder to Daz that there are 3D apps out there that costs less, actually much less, than Carrara Pro and they perform a lot better.

What amazes me is that Cheetah3D is mostly a one man project. Yet every major or minor release since version 5.0 contains some significant improvements including a full implementation of the Bullet physics engine (if I'm not mistaken it has live simulations) and a Javascript based scripting engine.

Maybe Daz should bring Dr. Martin (I forgot his last name) on board as a consultant to lead Carrara's dev. team and doesn't let them embark in a 3 years development that adds very little value to Carrara.
