Transient, my point is that we shouldn't be comparing the plugins of the two apps at all. Carrara versus trueSpace. Not VRay versus Carrara or the price of VRay versus the price of some other plugins. So obviously I am attempting to not compare the plugins.
trueSpace is still a very capable app without including VRay features, but I think it is only fair to use the internal features when comparing them.
I also find it kind of funny that you don't like the workflow in Carrara when the workflow in trueSpace is now very similar. trueSpace now has a 2 room workflow going on (workSpace/model tabs). While it may go away when trueSpace is finished, I have read comments from people on the Caligari forum who have expressed sorrow that that workflow may disappear. Also, both programs adjust object info via a right side docking panel and a bottom docking timeline. There are other similarities.
And in fairness, DAZ does have public feedback. They just don't say much. Ringo comes into just about every Carrara forum in existence in order to assure people Carrara is still being worked on. Caligari is just as touchy about forward looking statements. People were just as frustrated with Caligari over lack of specifics. In fact, it was not uncommon for people to suggest tS users just sit back and wait to be pleasantly surprised.
But again tS and Carrara compare rather well, but your needs will determine which is the better app for you.
