This may be a dream but here are some things I hope will be in Carrara2.0. Vertex Modeller: 1) Dynamic sizing of basic shapes (circles, squares, etc) using mouse, when creating new shapes. 2) Better way of rotating selections, including around center mass of selection or predefined point. 3) Expanded 2D shape library. 4) Better mirroring/flip functionality(ie flip in place/adjacent as opposed to draw plane) 5) Heirarchical meshes 6) Bones with mesh deformation Metaball Modeller: 1) Allow 4 views like other rooms 2) Improve intervace and views 3) More shapes Particles: 1) Assign objects to particles 2) More flexibility with 2d particle shapes Lights: 1) Add volumetrics/radiosity 2) Incorporate lens flares/glows as part of render not as post process. 3) More shadow options (color,gradients) Shaders: 1) Built in deformation options (ie Anything grooves built into shader channels) As well as NURBS and PHSYSICS. Oh well, hope it's not too late already.......... .Painter
