If I remember right, I think he uses Cinema4D a lot.

I think Pilou is out on vacation somewhere, no doubt suffering from Internet withdrawal. I think he said something about being back on the 5th or 6th or so.

Hi. I haven't used it for Moi. But i have imported some of my Rhino 3DM files into Carrara for render. I find that Carrara's mesher is not so great. the options are extremely limited, and the same setting is applied to all objects in the file. So i decided it's better to mesh everything in Rhino, and then import the obj's to Carrara... That was before Moi. Now I would prefer to mesh the Rhino models in Moi, as Carrara has pretty good support of n-gons...

I use Carrara 5 for almost all of my MoI objects. To UV an area for a logo for instance just go to the vertex modeler room and select the ploys you want to label and assign them a shading domain. Then open the UV tools and map just the shading domain you just made. Now go to the shader and use a complex layer shader instead of a multi-channel, add a basic layer assign it to the shading domain you want and import your UV map to the color channel. I hope this helps.

The french artist Marcel Laverdet use Carrara for render quasi all images
(it's also a master of Rhino :) So you will have no difficulties to export to Carrara from Moi!
