Re: Quick Modo Question
Yeah sadly Modo's has some issues with it's real time viewport. The "layered" alpha not working in the viewport is due to alpha sorting issues and is common to many 3D apps (Max being the most notorious). If that's bulletproof in Blender then that's a big plus for Blender. If you are using Modo 501 you could turn on Ray GL… -

Re: How I make a Reflection map mask?
It depends on exactly what they mean by reflection mask. A reflection mask in the sense that Gir is explaining it is the same thing as a specular mask. Really for most uses it would be redundant to have both (specular reflection is one thing, not two things, though in game engines specular often refers to reflected light… -
Re: [Portfolio] Micah McNeely
crits: - bad photoshop skills,- things like this make it abvious that you just used the magic wand- some of it is rescaled and looks pretty bad. Better render it out with a clean alpha channel and dont scale it up in photoshop. - thumbnails have distorted propertions check out the crop tool in photoshop to do it propper… -
Re: Modeling Tool?
i would stick away from silo, dev team hanst touched it in quite a long time, and there are some annoying ass bugs in it, but it does have a really nice workflow and default keyset, that you could implement in other 3d packages. if your looking for a very solid, and stable modeling tool set, i would say modo even a older… -
Re: computer randomly shuts off
90F isn't that hot. 90c? yeah you'd have broken something. Even 111f is only 43c, and even the crappiest CPU I ever had was good till at least 50c. Personally I've had both the old or underpowered PSU and a dying ram stick issue do this to my systems over the years. First, take a look at what's in your PC, then put that in… -
Re: To MODO or not to MODO...: MODO VS the Rest... (MODO users needed!)
Modo is weird. I've been using it for years and love it, but find it very difficult to recommend to others simply because of its off-putting quirks. For example, its modelling tools are great and you can work quite fast if you adapt to using keyboard shortcuts as opposed to the UI, and its UV tools are just as good. But it… -
Re: [Continuing] Random Modo Questions
No problem. Also if you haven't found it yet, there should be a keyboard shortcut reference in the help folder. On 501 mine is in help/pages/modointerface/ Random tips: I'll use Control + 1 / 2 / 3 often, control + space to change viewport from perspective to side / front etc (Which makes the quad viewport useless imo),… -
Re: To Modo or not to Modo?
I've been using modo for about a year now, previously I'd dabbled with max. It was a pretty jarring change at first, but I got used to it fairly quickly and was soon making much more complex stuff than I had in max. The tools just really clicked for me too. For game dev I agree with all that stuff in the linked thread..…
