I and Modo are one

[SpaceTik]

Do u use a Mac or a PC? I am doing the tutorials at work on a Mac and at home a Pc...

and I'm loving it! :bounce:

Yes Modo is a great app. to use, I think Im with you lexypobi im always gonna use Modo mainly for modeling.
Im using Modo on my brand new PC I just put together...but sadly instead of loveing Modo, I want to destroy it!
For some odd reason when to many polys are visible in a viewport, that viewport will freeze forcing me to hit 0 on the numbpad to get out then go back in. This is quite frustrating especially if Im working in Mod_quad!!

Maybe it has to do with my duel Gforce 6600 GT's :sad:

I guess I still love Modo haha

Its down to your Nvidia drivers...use the 78.01 driver as the 8x.xx have been reported to have problems.

Cheers.

Thanks for the advice Phil:thumbsup:

I did that a couple of days ago and it said my drivers were up to date...but now that you mention it, I didnt put in 78.01...I'll try that

Thanks again:)

That true, am using PC at the moment, and to be honest i cant count the number of time this app. has crased on me. the only good thing is the backup saving included in it, it really helps alot, but i one thing i dont like about modo is that, when you use a blue prints for something like car or any kind of modeling and later close your projects and re-opens it, you wont see the blue print with it, you always have to re-load your blue print. And that is very faustrating. i hope Lux will take a look at that in their next release

lexipobi,

Regarding the crashing - what are your system specs?

Modo 201 will have a backdrop feature in it.

Saves with project file for persistence
Auto fit background image to mesh command
