Digital Carvers Guild has released a new Carrara plugin called: DCG Importer:
“The DCG Importer lets you render simulations and animations from your favorite 3D tools that export sequenced OBJs.”

A description from Eric Winemiller at Digital Carvers Guild:
“It will import sequenced OBJ versions of anything the built in Wavefront OBJ importer will do. By only keeping one frame in memory at a time, it lets Carrara handle large or long running animations.”

One use case is exporting a fluid dynamic simulation from Blender (free) or RealFlow (expensive) into Carrara, the Youtube below shows the result.
