    Fabaone's ShareCG tutorials are quite helpful. I still find it a little difficult to understand what she's doing most of the time, though. :( She's great with it though. She was part of the driving force behind the plugin from the start!

    Fenric always hoped that somebody could help him produce a decent manual for it. He said that he's a programmer, not so much a software instructional author - so he had a hard time putting the functions to words in instructional form. He does explain, but it's still a vast controller for sure.

    PhilW's Advanced Carrara Techniques video tutorials has a fine explanation on using some of its features for controlling the flaps of the biplane (Sopwith Camel) by manipulating only one of the flaps. It's a simple example, which really works well toward helping one to understand how to get the modifiers working together - exactly what the Doctor ordered in many cases.

    Wild song, that Zomby Wolf, new for me.  Reminds me of "Frankenstein" by Edgar Winter, one of the great synth songs:

    Incidentally, Edgar's brother was Johnny Winter, one of the great blues guitarists.  Both albinos, they used to walk around the mall here in Houston with their troops, got some strange looks.  I tried setting my Fender Mustang up on its stand in front of this Johnny Winter video.  It didn't learn a thing.

    sprang for a new bigger hdd  they calling it a gaming drive, hopefully means faster

    for some silly reason decided i want a fresh win7 install.  
    even tho i have the lovely hd duplicator

    had to tear my apt apart looking for the notebook with my activation key.

    backed up my content and carrara folders. hoping i wont have to reinstall mimic and stuff.
    copied the qs filder to backup.  i deleted all the support files, wont be able to recrreate the smart database.

    i havent forgotten the 4 challenge.  been beset with hardware issues.  new drive gives lotsa space.
    those avi files are killer huge.  cant render directly to mp4

    pita internet activations. havent learned how to use blacksmith, but is on my reinstall list.
    bandicam
    may even install poser this time.
    each program in sony suite needs activation. 
    bandicam
    there only a couple of the free s/wares i use. 

    music and tutorials backed up
    feels like i forgetting something  jitters

    i havent found any video tutts on how to use carrara wm tools

    Is this from DAZ? Better let CS know installer corrupt 

    try another version of Carrara in the meantime if you have it like the beta or 8.1 even if you just copy over the plugins 

  • MistaraMistara Posts: 38,675

    starting over, windows cant install on a gpt drive. has to be mbr

    i dont understand why poser.ocx wasnt installed. i didnt see an error message

  • WendyLuvsCatzWendyLuvsCatz Posts: 38,227

    I know the Mac one has a 0 file FBX export/importer but didn’t know of any having issues with DAZ and Poser content

    Misty you need to ask people who know, they won’t necessarily see your posts in my thread, my hardware skills are nonexistent
