I tried to import my mesh from substance painter to maya but I didn not get it to look right in Arnold. So I decided to start with the basics and follow the Arnold tutorials first. Unfortunately the files provided in the solidangle learning area https://support.solidangle.com/display/AFMUG/Learning+Scenes do not look like…

If I import it into Blender, it works, but any other program like windows' built in 3d viewer or 3dviewer.net will show it as blank or fail to import it with an error: The model doesn't contain any meshes.

All of the TD's (Technical Directors and Artists) that I know are fluent in multiple scripting languages.. whether it is python, Mel, Maxscript, C++, or something…
Modo has SDK level access via python now right? If so that's great. I'll keep giving it a go. Does someone care to explain the pivot thing then? Because it's downright confusing.
