Hello. I am in Sydney Australia. I am an owner of the product Raydream studio 5.5 formerly a product of metacreations. Some time age, metacreations created a new product which was to supercede this, this was called Cararra. Metacreation change business to E-commerce and sold off the rights and software to other companys. Carrara apparently was sold to Eovia com. Recently I heard users of Raydream Studio could purchase an upgrade to the new version Carrara Studio, as long as they could show they were the actual owners of Raydream Studio ( RDS ) for about 150 USA dollars. I have heard a bit on Carrara, in the past some of it good and some bad. I would like some feedback and especially like to know how easy is it use and would people recommend I change to this product or not ? Note: I would using this to create mostly models and props for other software such as Bryce or Poser also former Metacreations products. I also understand that Carrara Studio comes with the previous version of the modelling sofware Amapi 5.5 which used a type of modelling lines called Nurbs.. I have only vaguely heard of Nurbs and would like more information on them - generally - as to what they are, how useful they are for an amatuer computer artist like in making 3d figures / objects etc.. TIA Pc_artist Sydney Australia.
