I have been lucky enough to get new DUF items to load in Carrara. Maybe some don't, but I haven't had that problem yet. Knock on wood.

Luckily, being so compatible with Poser helps extend the life of Carrara. So many great items STILL coming out for Poser have worked in Carrara. Again, knock on wood.

They have all these bridges for a ton of other software, why no bridge for Cararra? That should have been the EASIEST to make.

I have turned a few people onto Carrara for animation. It just can't be beat for ease of use.

I don't know who would be interested in buying the rights to the software. Maybe of they saw how powerful it is. I don't know.
