Maya vs MODO workflows

eco_bach

Are there any experienced MODO and Maya peeps reading this that could list what advantages, if any, a Maya to Unity workflow would have over a MODO to Unity workflow? I know Maya is more of an Industry standard but I've purchased MODO because of
1 its modelling abilities,
2 price,
3 less steep learning curve.

What in particular are you stuck on in terms of modo?

All you do is export in an fbx format into your unity directory and your done. There are some fbx export settings in the modo preferences that you will want to check. Let me know if you have any problems.

Is it not a bit late for a list of pros/cons if you've already purchased Modo? Seems best to just dig into Modo then, it's a fine piece of software.

just make sure to turn smooth groups off in the fbx exporter settings. Spent 3 hours exporting and re baking before I figured that one out -_-. You can leave mesh smoothness on to retain hard edges.
