Hey guys, I've been waiting for a long time to see some new stuff in the Carrara Free Stuff, and I don't see any. I realize this program isn't as popular as it could be, but I think there are enough of us to start posting some things, don't you think? I mean, I use custom shaders all the time, so I could upload some. I was able to get the Shades of Reality Demo for Mac, Unstuff it and use it on my PC, so I don't think that formatting should be a problem. Anybody have anything? Anything at all? I love dissecting some of these things, and would be grateful to anyone who posts even the most mediocre of Freebies. Just a thought. Hoborg

Yea - Its been a while since I've made anything for the Free Stuff. I think I'll make some new shaders over the next week or so. As far as models go...There are so many available all over the place that you can use with Carrara I guess no one is posting them as Carrara specific models. I'll post back here once I get a few new items loaded up. I'm currently working on a new image with my Morg figure and my 3D Plants. I hope to have that done next week. I'll try to work in some shaders. Im also going to make some T-Maps for the Free stuff for my Morg figure, AntMan figure and also my 3D Plants. They will be free but you will need the commercial product of the above listed items to use them with.. ;) Would be cool if all the members from the Carrara Forum posted at least one free stuff item in the near future. (nudge nudge wink wink) ;) Thanks for the post Hoborg..Maybe this will spur the forum members on! :) Regards, Clint Hawkin-Z GraF-X http://www.gw.total-web.net/~chawkins

Hey, I'm happy to post some stuff -- models, shaders I've created and such, but I'm working in RD3D -- would my stuff be of ANY use to anybody? Let me know. - Chip

I think the problem is that the upload is disabled and you must find a site and then link it to it. So this is why you guys aren`t seeing anything new. To much of a hassle. Dave

OK - At the risk of looking really stupid...I gotta ask. Im on the admin team and wasnt aware that upload was disabled.... It is???? Maybe there is a STUPID stamp on my forehead.. LOL! Clint

The upload works. I think that it's just the remote file storage that Dave was talking about. No different than on any of the other forums though. I haven't posted anything else cuz I feel kinda stupid having my name plastered all over the section with virtually no other contributors. :0 Mark

I'm new at Carrara but I'd be happy to offer any shader I come up with. Maybe a short tutorial on the "packaging" of the custom shaders for upload would be a good idea for us newbies. If the shader was built around a texture map(s) will those be included in the shader file? Do I simply copy the file in the shaders folder in my Carrara directory?Etc... Thanks Daf
