Hi folks,

We've just posted an update to Anything Grows geared towards playing nicely with TransPoser, but with a few other updates as well. It includes the following new features:

1. A new Carrara 3 friendly UI for the Anything Grows modifier.

2. UV mapped strands. Use a transparency map to give the illusion that they are many more strands than there really are. See the bouncy furry thing video by clicking on the furball.
3. A way to select a static Reference Object so that Anything Grows can be used with Poser animations imported with TransPoser. Check out the new Anything Grows and TransPoser tutorial at
   http://www.digitalcarversguild.com/tutorials/agroposer/
4. A button to line up Anything Grows primitive with their base objects. No more manually copying translation and rotation.
5. The Restrict Strands to Domain lets you concentrate all the strands on a single shading domain, say for example the skullcap shading domain of the Poser 5 male or the SkinHead:0 domain of the Poser 5 female.

In a recent email I mentioned an Anything Grows/TransPoser styling kit. That is still under construction, but here's a couple of images.

You can download the update or try out Anything Grows from the following links. The update is free to existing Anything Grows or eovia Power Pack customers.
