Thread: My canoe is takin' on water! | Forum: Carrara
Could you not build your boat and water as one vertex object in the vm and use shading domains to texture the water and boat .Then all you would have to do is select vertices for both the boat and waters edge around the boat and move them where you want the boat to go. I think this should work. Mike

Thread: Crank up processing speed? | Forum: Carrara
I should clarify , "bump and transparency" on the same object really slows things down when it comes to rendering. Mike
Thread: Crank up processing speed? | Forum: Carrara
Try disabling the "bump" in the render settings. I found that bump ang transparency really slows things down. Use texture maps to simulate bump if you can. My 2 cents. Mike
Thread: Lather Tool | Forum: Carrara
Donnie, I think you just have to have the properties tray open while you are hitting the "+/-" signs. When you hit the "+/-" sign the numbers should change in the "lathe" part of the dialogue box. The mini tut Mark posted shows this. Mike

Thread: It has arrived!! | Forum: Carrara
I don't think Carrara can exclude an object from recieving light, someone else may know a workaround but I cant think of one right now. Mike
Thread: It has arrived!! | Forum: Carrara
For placing texture maps use a "rectangular" layer on your object. You should then see numeric entry fields for changing locations. One note to remember that these fields represents a value of 0-1.0 . So think in terms of percentages when placing the tmap using these numeric entry fields. Also , there is a "translation " in the x and y axix which moves tmaps Hope your wife has a speedy recovery. Mike
Thread: It has arrived!! | Forum: Carrara
Donnie, I just tried the Master lights and it works fine , may not be totally flexible but playing with this feature for a few minutes makes me wonder why I haven't used it before. Anyways here is what I did. Group all the lights that you want to change using the "Master Light" feature into a single group. Then select this group then look in Edit menue at the top of the screen then select "master light" from this menue. You can change the settings to effect only certain types of lights,or all the lights in your group. (bulb,distant etc. ) Go back to assembly room and all your lights are updated. Thanks for your comment about the lights ,now I think I am going to be using this feature in the future. Mike

Donnie, With regards to controling many lights at one time try using master lights in carrara . I haven't used it but I think you should be able to control many lights by a single entry into the master light dialogue box. See page 374 of the manual . It may do what you want. Regards Mike
Thread: Hi all. | Forum: Carrara
Donnie, The manual is about 600 pages. The manual should get you up and running but it doesn't tell you everything . I guess it is a typical manual , covers the basics of the program. You can also check out www.3dXtract.com for tutorials and other info. Mike
Thread: Hi all. | Forum: Carrara
Yes , I do like the new plant generator,it makes Carrara an even more well rounded package. I use carrara everyday as an architectural illustrator and find it works well for me in almost all situations. Carrara is a program I would miss for sure. Good luck with you decision. Mike
