The problem with that is I have done stuff that worked great, then couldn't recall how I did it
Remeber all your old Poser stuff should work fine. Mil 2-4 figures work fine. V4/M4 can really show you what carrara can do with figures. As in if modeling in the assembly room worked as well with Genesis/G2F/M as it does the mil 4 figures, most all the issues caused by autofit could be fixed easily.
You can just do a runtime search with carrara, but it adds all of them, even the ones you didn't know you had lol. I have mine sorted by figure, archatecture, assories, flora, vehicals; my props folder exploded lol But I have quite a few runtimes I don't really use any more. They are more for the clothes I have converted to other figures.
I mean I don't use the mil2/3 figures any more, but I still use a lot of their clothes, hair, and assories.
Sorry. I didn't get an e-bot notification and i've been a bit distracted...
Unfortunately, I'm not finding life with learning Carrara to be that easy. When materials do import from Poser-friendly stuff, they look really bad when rendered. The material poses (in pose folders) usually do not apply in Carrara. In at least one instance, even a Daz Studio friendly character for V4/Genesis I tried looked like materials aren't even apply to the right material zones. I need to investigate that more... I haven't had a lot of time...
Not a very happy experience so far. I won't be giving this program much more time. Maybe two weeks, at best...
