We found it simple to export a Carrara scene out in the DAE format to Photoshop with high scene fidelity preserved, but were unable to import a DAE scene or even find this format in the Import dialog. This is the universal 3D file format for exchanging models between applications. For example, only the Windows version allows you to take advantage of support for Collada import, another new feature. You can also relax UV seams when in the UV Editor, but only the Pro version gives you the ability to unfold UV maps.Ĭarrara runs on Windows and Mac OS with no real difference in the application’s look and feel, but with some feature disparity.

The only caveat is that the figure or object needs to have LOD levels available and each mesh must have the same vertices as the other levels.

DAZ format content faithfully from the Content tab of the browser. There’s no longer any need to mess about with transposer utilities or plug-ins, as you can import. On the subject of figures, Daz 3D content is fully supported in Carrara.

This means that you can quickly work on figures and objects as they are posed and positioned in the scene or on an isolated model in a default pose in the modeling room. Modelling enhancements include the ability to work with Vertex Modelling tools in both the Assembly and the Modeling room.
