Hey, Kix -- Thanks for the details on the particles in C. It seems like it must be much more powerful than the particles in RDS. As for Furrific, well, no it's not as amazing as Monsters, Inc., but it's pretty good, nonetheless. Maybe AFX will consider porting some of their plug-ins over to Carrara now that it's a supported program again. Maybe someone here might put a little bug in their ear, eh? Unless I'm mistaken, it shouldn't be all that difficult to change the coding from an RDS plug-in to a Carrara plug-in. (Of course, I know ABSOLUTELY nothing about coding, so I know not whereof I speak.) - Dex
