I have been visiting Rendo, DNA  ... a lot more this year than previously even posting more in these forums ...  the recent interest here by Rendo in Carrara is a welcome breath of fresh air.  ... they will aquire a lot more Carrara users in the near future I would imagine. ... Thanks Mark B for your continuing interest in Carrara here at Rendo :-)

I agree.  DAZ's decision regarding Carrara and even Poser format content is pushing people away, myself included.  Even worse, they seem to feel no need to explain anything to their longtime customers.  E.g. they asked for a paid update to Carrara V.8, then also for 8.5, having never delivered the updated documentation promised since V.7.  I complained ... a lot ... and all I accomplished (besides a lot of nasty comments from DAZ' defenders) was getting them to change the Carrara documentation page from "Coming soon!" (which it showed for several years) to "TBD".  What did DAZ offer to make up for the promised product that was never delivered?  Nada.  So now I am "Poser format" only (and Carrara of course), not "DSON Importer" or "DUF", all of which seem to cause problems in Carrara.  Or whatever they come up with next.  And that means moving over to Rendo, etc.
