CyBorgTy -

As I mentioned elsewhere, this guy has a serious "Sheldon" problem (Big Bang Theory): "That's My Spot". (Very funny stuff, I should add)

But I did want to ask what you think about this offer from Lightwave:

"For a limited time all 2D and 3D artists can add the powerful LightWave Production Suite including LightWave 2015, ChronoSculpt, and NevronMotion to their creative tools for just $695 and save $998! Owners of earlier versions of LightWave can upgrade to LightWave 2015 and get the Production Suite as a special bonus for only $395! Offer Ends December 31st, 2015."

I have an earlier version of Lightwave and I'm curious about the deal. As you may recall, I like to use Carrara mostly because of its seamless support for Poser content, in particular Gen4 characters (I am not a modeler). I also got sold on and bought Poser Pro 2014 due to a recent Smith Micro low price deal. And I understand that Poser Fusion can connect Poser and Lightwave (although the animation has to be done in Poser, per Mark Bremmer). Sooooo ... should I really be thinking about changing horses? I'm really reluctant since I can do a lot with Carrara, and I'm not keen on another learning curve. But with DAZ's attitude toward Carrara ... (my back and forth continues for a long time)
