Hey all, Just bought Modo and am working through this book. I have been very satisfied with this book (as I have with all of Dan's Inside LightWave books...

Forgot to add this to my earlier post. I have several tutorials which refer to these green "cages" around a model, but they don't show up on my interface. Is...
Hi Everyone! I'm a very new Newbie, and just joined this group with a couple of questions, for anyone who may have the answers. With the release of 301,...
Welcome aboard. Glad you like the tutorials. Be sure to check out www.luxology.com and the luxology tv for more great stuff. Dan ... [Non-text portions of this...
Greetings all. I upgraded to 301 and love all the new features, but particularly I'm glad animation support has been added. The animation tools work great, but...
Keep in mind that the IR cache is computed independently on each machine. Slaves that are significantly slower than the master are probably not going to be of...
What's the best way to determine the optimum bucket size... both for local renders and network renders? When I render a frame and see the bucket memory should...
Cool... so if I understand correctly if I -don't- cache irradiance I should see then see a 10X speedup using 10 machines? Would I still want to use walkthrough...
Rendering performance is affected by *many* different variables as you know. modo 301 performs best on a network when the network consists of machines of...
Actually, the 40 by 40 pixel bucket is typically the ideal size bucket when rendering approximately video resolution frames. If you have multiple processors...
So I guess ideally it might be best to render a portion of the entire scene on each node. Render frames 1-50 on node A. Frames 51-100 on node B, and so on....
Can anyone even approximate when the Evaluation 301 version will be released? Also, How do you get the 203 Eval extended beyond 30 days? I was told I could...

I am having so much fun with modo 301. I'm working on a cityscape scene and was wondering if anyone had suggestions on how to do environmental fog. I'd like...
Select the Shader in the Shader Tree, and in the Properties panel, you'll find the Fog settings. ... [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]...
Quick comment: There is a fog option in the base shader that affects materials but there is no "volumetric" fog per se. ... [Non-text portions of this message...
Wow. Looks like I'm the only one posting these days. Either I'm behind the curve or all the modo-heads have found another place for support. Anyway, I've...
I think you need to move that item's Material mask above the base shader and then add a Shader layer inside the mask. Then you can tick off settings like "Cast...
modo is great at importing LightWave models, but I'm wondering what the best way is to take an LightWave scene and bring it into modo, lights, cameras and all....
Hello All, just wanted to take a minute to say hello, and thank everyone in advance for the help i will be gleaning from u all. I am bran new to 3-d, bought...
Welcome June, It's a good time to start in 3D and Modo is a good program for beginners. There is a lot of materials and videos and Luxology is working hard to...
