Here are some of the hot new features to try out:

• 3D Paint
  In Carrara 6.5, 3D Painting was added to the Assembly room. A texture can be selected, edited, or assigned to an object The 3D Paint tool supports layers, image stamping, tablet support, and the ability to save brush settings for later use. In addition to customizable brushes and stamps the Carrara 6.5 3D paint tool also includes a line tool, an eyedropper tool and an eraser.

• LODs
  Carrara 6.5 provides the ability to use Level of Detail (LOD) meshes on a figure which allows the user to use lower resolution meshes while working in the scene to save time when manipulating models but then render with a higher resolution mesh or use different resolution meshes depending on how far the figure is from the camera.

There are two different ways to switch between higher and lower LOD meshes.

1. Simple - Manually set the LOD values for the viewport and for rendering.
2. Advanced – Allow the application to automatically switch LOD meshes based on distance from the camera.

• Vertex modeling in assembly room
  Vertex modeling capability has been added to the assembly room. By having the ability to do vertex modeling in the assembly room you are able to see the other objects in the scene. All of the features available for vertex modeling are now included in assembly room.

• UV Editing
  The UV Editor contains a 3D view of the polymesh, a 2D display of the UV values on the polymesh vertices, and a set of tools to manipulate them including a variety of selection modes and selection tools. The UV editing feature includes the ability to map UVs to a surface and to define seams and pins to “Unfold” the UVs.

• Transparency optimizations
  Rendering enhancements which will make rendering faster for most renders which include transparencies.

No need to think outside the box....
    Just make it invisible.
