Carrara 4 Wish List

Of all you ask, I see one item that still baffles me that it has not be
addressed long ago.  The nudge with arrow keys.  This feature has been and
is constantly requested.  In the old RDS day we were asking for this.  Just
about any other program I use has a feature like this.  This is the type of
feature that would benefit everyone no matter what skill level they are at.
This is a must do feature in my book that is way over due.

 Hi All,

 Carrara 4 Wish List

 After much thought, looking at Carrara requests, and research into other
3d tools here is a
 wish list I've compiled.  Hope it helps.

 Overview
 *Please put more focus on animation and fixes the bugs.  I would like to
use Carrara more
 for TV and short film work
 *Make it better and easier to create natural effects such as rain, snow,
lightning, wind, etc.
 *Greatly increase display speed.  Continue to Improve render speeds.  Take
advantage of
 the latest processors and video cards

 Details
 *Tree Modeler Improvements
 More realistically shaded trunks
 Ability to create other types of vegetation such as bushes, flowers,
vines, moss, etc.
 Ability to be effected by wind force

 *True volumetric shaders
 Water, fire, clouds, dust, smoke, etc.
 Fire and cloud shader should at least have all the options the
corresponding primitives
 have.  Having these shaders would be better than the primitives because it
take on any
 shape it is applied to.  Image a tree or human made out of water or fire.
 Can be animated
 Water could be used to create animated fluid effects ranging from ponds
with ripples to
 oceans with crashing waves and foam

 *Cloth generator
 Ability to apply soft dynamic forces

 *Simple easy to use nurb modeler

 *Display & Render Improvements
 Optimize for latest processors such as Apple G5, Intel P4 hyper threading,
latest AMD
 Take advantage of latest video cards
 Improve and speedup display (esp. Open GL)

 *Physical Force Improvements
 Increase speed of all physical forces
 Add ability to simulate wind with a new physical wind force.  Ability for
any object to be
 effected by wind.  Trees swaying in the wind.  Particles being blown
around.  Soft dyamic
 effects such a flag being blown in the wind.   Cause anything grows fur to
move in the
 wind

 *Sky Editor Improvements
 True volumetric atmospheres
 Ability to create lightning storm, rain, hail, snow storms from within
this editor
 Ability to create big fluffy clouds and cloud shadows
 More options for effects like rainbow (strength, size, number of rings,
etc.)
 Add new effects like stars (twinkle, strength, number, etc.)

 *Particle Editor Improvements
 Ability to use any object as a particle.
 Ability to create more realistic smoke, rain, snow, pixie dust, etc.
 Ability to use deflectors.
 Particles can be emitters.  Great for fireworks
 Ability to attach particles to objects
 Greatly increase generation & display speed

 *Metaball Editor Improvements
 Update interface to match other modelers
 Add window options such as 4 way view

 *Clay/wax modeler w/pressure sensitive tools

 *Character/Facial Animation Improvements
 Ability to lip sync character lips with voice sound track
 Multimorph targets
 Motion mixer
 Motion transitions
 Store,reuse,&adj motions

 *Nudge objects with arrow keys

 *Terrain Modeler Improvements
 Pressure sensitive tools.
 More options for painting craters
 More painting options such as painting stones, pebbles, crackers
 Ability to add vegetation, lakes, rivers, etc.

 *Support for Poser 5 style hair with Transposer
 Be able to animate hair with wind force

 *Ability to incorporate sound
 Place virtual speakers in scene and assign sound files to them
 Sounds will be heard in relation to camera's position from speakers
 Generate mono, stereo, and surround sound for a rendering
