Carrara has good support for shaders (e.g., character, object, and clothing textures).

In contrast, Carrara is much better at handling backgrounds, as well as supports terrains and environmental effects.

Because of lag, doing more complex backgrounds in Poser is difficult and unpleasant.While there is a format transfer solution for Poser, these figures and the clothing autofit tool that gives it a lot of flexibility, work best in Daz Studio.įigures rendered in Carrara. In particular, generation 5 and above Victoria and Michael figures are now based on this new technology. However, recently, Daz released a new generation of models based on their Genesis technology. Earlier versions of Victoria and Michael are fully Poser compatible. Most of the outfits and accessories produced by 3D vendors support these two character lines. More importantly, Daz also produces very popular human base models, such as their well known Victoria and Michael lines. One of the largest places for low cost 3D models is at Daz3D. More recently, I decided not to move back to Poser, mainly because of the Genesis figure. Note though, that I haven’t used Poser in several years, therefore my Poser experiences are based on Poser computer hardware. I really wanted something that would give me greater control of the object polygons, smoother interface control, as well as faster rendering. It became extremely painful to create, pose, and render even fairly simple scenes. posing and navigation) slowed down significantly for me as well. Anything more than a simple figure took a long time to render, and the direct manipulation interface (e.g. I moved away from Poser mainly because rendering time was really long. In addition, it has a powerful dynamic cloth system, and a great material room (i.e. Many vendors are very familiar with Poser, and there are loads of 3D-products that are available for the platform. One of the biggest advantages of Poser, in my opinion, is that it has been around for a long time, therefore, there is a lot of content for it.
