IBox: The dolly cam is pretty much unchanged from C2.x. I have a button on my trackball that makes the Dolly work, so it's not a problem for me. The preview window is now in the properties tray, and when I mouse over that and hold the "d" key, it dollies just fine. The add vertex tool is improved, it will now connect the newly added points. I'm still getting the hang of the extrusion tool(s), they're new and I fear a bit wonky, that should be fixed (hopefully) by the time of the final release in Sept. The property tray has some improvements/refinements. When the select tool is chosen, and a vertex (or polyline/s or polygon) is selected, you can enter in a numeric amt to move it/them in X,Y, and/or Z direction. Same thing happens with you use the resize tool. One big thing for me, is that in the main 3D window, yaw, pitch and roll's been replaced by X,Y and Z! Even though it may seem to you that Carrara is "going down the same road" -- in my opinion that road's now paved and widened. You may enjoy some of the rendering improvements, too. The GI is now part of the RayTracer engine. You can use something called HDRI for enviromental lighting and it gives some pretty impressive results. Think there's a thread here somewhere with some examples. Although I've been recently laid off, this upgrade impressed me so much that I ordered it and having been playing around with the beta, I don't regret it one iota.
