Modo 801 Reveal
Firstly it was definitely worth waking up at 3:45am to see. Brad doing a captain america live action improv while waiting for the screen to be sorted out was great. For me the two things of interest are time spacing bar. That is such an amazing teaching tool right there. One of my bugbears in Modo 701 is the shader system. I don’t like it. 5 Minutes of playing with the new Node based shader tree in 801 and I am in heaven ;) Have a look at http://www.thefoundry.co.uk/products/modo/latest-version/ table width=100% border=0 cellspacing=0 cellpadding=0 style=width:100%; tr td align=left style=text-align:justify;font face=arial,sans-serif size=1 color=#99span style=font-size:11px;This communication is intended for the addressee only.

Haven't got the time to see the event yet, but lurking though your comments and the features on the foundry website it looks stunning!! ...

Re: Modo 801 Reveal
Hey Manuel! The nodal shading in Modo works great, but it's not a full replacement of the Shader Tree. They work great together though. I guess the best parallel to this I've seen was how Combustion works... you can do all your effects work in the schematic, and then just order layers in their Layer Stack. Hope this helps!

RE: Modo 801 Reveal
Hey Sergio, Glad to see you around! thanks for the help. I actually am ultra new to modo, although I remember hearing great stuff from you in the rigging area. I am glad its actually shaping itself as a full featured packagein all cg areas. My needs are mostly lookdev lighting, so from what I see looks great! I ve been hearing awesome stuff about its renderer but my work experience so far is been related withmental ray and arnold. So I am not sure how modo render compares in render quality/features with arnold for example... I'll dig in a bit to see for myself I guess... cheershave a good friday man, -Manu IMDB | Portfolio | Vimeo | Linkedin Date: Fri, 25 Apr 2014 15:18:21 -0400 Subject: Re: Modo 801 Reveal From: sergio.muc...@gmail.com To: softimage@listproc.autodesk.com Hey Manuel!
