DAZ 3D launches Carrara 7
DAZ 3D has launched Carrara 7.0, an update to its 3D modeling, animation and rendering software. New features include a merge track tool, providing more flexibility in animations; 3D paint capabilities, to allow painting directly on a model; and multi-pass rendering, which enables image editing without having to re-render. Other improvements include export of a figure or scene into the Collada format, vertex modeling available in both the modeling and assembly room, and a UV editor. Figures can now have multiple levels of detail.
Support for Carrera 7.0, meanwhile, has been added to DAZ Studio. The former runs on Mac OS X 10.3.9 or later, and also demands 1GB of RAM plus an OpenGL-compatible 128MB video card.
