Hi.  I took a leap of faith and bought Carrara 5 Pro, but I'm having a few problems.  First how do I install the content cd that came with the program.

Secondly I am importing terrains that I made in Bryce, and the first terrain imports fine.  Even the second terrain imports fine but when I try and move it, the terrain suddenly grows to fill the whole screen, or it shrinks to a tiny dot barely visible on the screen. I am clicking on the move tool, so I don't know what is wrong or how to fix it.  Each terrain from bryce is 4096 X 4096.  Any help will be much appreciated.

If only bryce could export grouped terrains....

Thirdly (Is that really a word?) is it possible to create custom skys, or can I only select from the pre made skys?

Toon Pro render is really cool, but is it possible to use more than one render option at a time.  I mean can I combine Toon Pro with Noir, or anything goos?

I haven't tried to import Poser people or Wings models yet.  That's for another day.

Can Carrara do volumetric fire, or will I have to simulated with volumetric clouds like I did in Bryce?

Is there away to turn the ground off?  In bryce I can just delete the ground plane, but I can't seem to find that in Carrara.

I am really enjoying the program so far (several hours now) and finding it a little more confusing than Bryce, but then I've used Bryce for almost ten years now.

Thanks for all the help.

Sincerely,

David
