@ maxxxmodelz:

I agree with you that Carrara's modeler is anything but high-end, and you shouldn't consider it for any complex modeling task.

But fortunately there is Hexagon, which currently sells for $19.95 at Daz. Hexagon is a modeler in the same league as Silo. It is very responsive and very comfortable to work with. It has native support for .car files, so you can model in Hexagon, then open the file in Carrara for texturing, rigging, animating and rendering.

For this reason, and considering Hexagon's very low price, I am not insisting on Carrara's modeling room improvements at this time.

Although in the long run, as Jon Stark suggested in another thread, I would very much like to see all of Hexagon's features migrated to Carrara.
