Probably the most intriguing feature on the list.

It’s an absolute must if you’re doing any organic modelling. The softer selection has less influence but whatever you do (move, scale) still has an impact. If you’ve never used it, it’s quite hard to explain but I’ll try anyway:- Soft selection allows you to select part of a model and then take an additional softer selection of it’s surrounding points. I first encountered them in Silo and what a great feature it is. Soft selections is something I’ve personally requested. Initially I was just thinking about things like TV screens, but actually it could go way further than this. The possibilities here seem pretty endless. I can see a huge benefit here though and it’s something I’ve seen requested in the forum a good few times over the years. I think this is because I largely produce still images with Cheetah3D.

Personally I’ve never really needed movie textures. I can actually see this changing the way I model completely. It’s very hard to move on and continue modelling after you’ve used a boolean at present. Booleans have never been particularly useful in Cheetah3D as the meshes that you end up with are quite messy. Could we finally see the much requested render preview? NGon Booleans My knowledge of rendering isn’t the best and I’m not sure what to expect here. There’s a few in there that I’m pretty excited about, and I must confess I do know of some other features that are planned too but I’m sworn to secrecy on them! New Renderer Whilst there’s no release date yet, the new feature list does sound impressive… Cheetah3D creator Martin Wengenmayer appeared on the Cheetah3D forum recently and listed some of the features that we can expect to see in the upcoming Cheetah3D Version 7.
