icek14--tell your mum and dad that I am 73 and they have just made a great investment--not only in the products but also in the connection to the great folk on the Carrara web forums. Welcome.

Welcome to the Carrara Community. If you have any question please post them. Also, the tutorial section here is expanding nicely, so there is a place to start if you are looking for any general techniques or to learn how to use Carrara.

Icek this may sound different to what most people do nowadays but in my 73 years I always first have a quick look through everything written and click open every thing openable. Then I start at the very first word in the "book" and slowly work through to the end--doing each test example as it turns up. My children and grandchildren tend to jump from one interesting area to the next and then come to me because they lost the flow-through context of the overall message. Just like buying a car-open all the doors and things , twiddle with the knobs, then read the manual! THEN drive!

Hi and welcome.

I got Carrara and Hex very close together and I suggest you start with one and just stick with that for a week rather than jumping backward and forward between the two. Start simple, play and have fun. Don't worry if something does not make sense straight away as it might click in a day or two. Ask questions here - I've found these people to be polite most of the time

But check the forum first to see if anyone else asked first

to use bwtrs example above - personally I drive first, crash a lot, then read the book....
