for people who transitioned to modo how's the stability in that program? I bought modo indie on steam when it was on sale with the idea to learn it on the side, but I barely got to use it. was still getting used to maya which i use at work. which although I like the tools. everything like explode for reasons I couldn't figure out.
my plan is to jump on the houdini wagon come the new apprenctice, then jump on indie and learn that till I'm comfortable enough to get work to buy full licenses. I hope it's stable On Thu, Feb 16, 2017 at 11:15 AM, Jordi Bares <jordiba...@gmail.com> wrote: > Below > > Sent from my iPhone > > On 16 Feb 2017, at 18:47, phil harbath <phil.harb...@jamination.com> > wrote: > > I am very curious on how people feel about houdini’s character animation > tools.
