Hi all,
Thanks for your advises.
I am actually glad to hear that Eovia will update its software
somewhere this year.
Buying LW or Maya is way out of my budget. Maybe in some years when
I can really make money with my movies. Now I use Carrara mainly as
an enhancement to my 'reallife' movies.
I'll think it over in the weekend when I will decide after playing
with Truespace for some time.
Thanks you all again.
Hans
