Upgraded Transparency rendering accelerates and improves the quality of these complex effects.Ghost and Xray offer practical visualization options to improve every day tasks like modeling, layout and rigging. It’s where artists spend most of their day. Viewport-The 3D viewport is an essential part of any 3D application.Component selection is twice as fast and edge removal operations have shown improvements as high as 100x. Booleans have been accelerated by as much as 380x in complex examples. The advanced viewport has been optimized for faster shader tree processing. Performance-There’s always room for more performance and Modo 14 delivers on this notion.By adding streamlined IK/FK switching for planar IK, Rig Clay for animators to more interactively manipulate shapes or set keys, and USD import/Export for industry-standard exchange, Modo is poised to redefine rigging and animation workflows across design and entertainment industries. Animation & Rigging-Modo has one of the most novel Rigging and Animation systems on the market today.Unwrap and Relax combines two tools that are commonly used in sequence to improve workflow and the addition of Real World Size makes Modos UV tools an indispensable part of any 3D design arsenal. UV Relax has been added to the procedural system. With each release, this set of tools both grows and refines. UV Enhancements-Modos UV tool set has long enabled mapping wizardry.With GPU acceleration via Optix 7, the addition of intel embree support, cryptomatte for intelligent and lightweight automated masking, and shading workflow enhancements from the PBR Loader, mPath has rapidly grown into a powerful renderer that artists can rely on. The same is true with a renderer, there’s always room for new capabilities and enhancements. Rendering & Shading-A painter is never actually done with a painting.With meaningful additions to MeshFusion via embossing and sharp corners, Procedural Vmaps and Keep Vertices for Deleted Geometry, procedural modeling continues to grow more powerful. The vast majority of direct modeling features that have been added in this release have also been added to the procedural system. Procedural Modeling-Introduced in Modo 10, the procedural modeling tool sets have provided modo with a system built for the future of modeling.With over 17 total features and enhancements in this area, direct modeling has never been easier, faster or more flexible. Polygon Bevel Autoweld provides the automated decision-making that artists expect from modern modeling tools. Add point and Unbevel offer improved revision capabilities. The new Edge Chamfer tool has now reached feature parity with bevel.
