The issue for me is the performance of the app when playing back
deformations on (even moderately) complex characters, or painting
weights. They added an optional OpenSubDiv package(kinda like a
property) that can be added to speed things up a little, but at best
it's like a topical ointment rather than a real remedy. They need to try
and hit at least 24fps during manipulation and playback on moderate
characters. Thankfully, this is still very much a known issue at The
Foundry.
But Jordi's right.... the rigging options themselves are really quite
powerful. They've got something that's quite unique, yet potent,
compared to other commercial tools. It's just hampered by the fact that
it's simply too easy to create a character that bogs the system down.
And hey, now with Eric working on FE integration...

I am very excited following Modo development, lately their drive for
animation and rigging has been exceptional and if you are impressed by
this when you look at the truly well done animation tools they
published on 801 you should be very excited.
look forward to work with it on a real animation project

Jaw dropping. Now it looks like they nailed. Did everyone see the
mesh retarget? and the FK/IK friendly switching?
Opinions?
Cheers.
