Re: .CAR file format v3 vs v4 2005-05-24 - By Andrew

C3 files should be useable in C4, assuming that that have the same
plug-ins in the C4 as you do in C3. If not, then I've heard of files
that only partially show it's contents, or even fails to open at all.
C4 files are not necessarily backward compatible, due to it's new
features. Perhaps, if you avoided all the new features and extruded
additional things like animation and such (because they were updated
in C4); a C4 file might be able to be opened in C3, but that isn't
officially supported.

PS: BTW, your example was of a .rar format: "I'm trying to load "wave
caustics.rar" (one of the included examples) "
