I would love better modeling, but I am getting better with amapi and have been using it almost exclusivly for modeling (primitive attempts so far but I like it the more I use it). I would like those functions built into Carrara since I still have crash and importing problems with amapi after smoothing. I have to say, that the carrara export has been very good so far. I would like to be able to get Obj without import to C then export or buying v6. "Artifact" is my ongoing short with progresivly more modeling and use of the fetures in Carrara.
