OK, read the Carrara Cafe thread. You seriously got warnings from mods for telling newbies how to manually install content? That's crazy!

And the issues with the new 8.5. I really didn't keep up with all the discussion on the beta, but I'm now seeing an every growing list of issues crop up as I read through posts at the DAZ Carrara forum. The price issue was what sent the other way on 8.5, but also reading the troubles some have had makes me glad I'm not fighting with it now. Sure, their are people not having any problems, so far, but there are plenty who are. I've read enough to see that the problems aren't isolated or hardware related.
