Modo 801 background constraint software#

Please reference the ' Snapping' Section of the documentation. 'Slip UVs' function enabled, texture remains even. 'Slip UVs' function disabled, note texture warping. To avoid this undesirable result, users can enable the 'Slip UVs' function so as to not disturb any existing UV mapping applied to the geometry. Slip UVs: UV values are generally fixed to specific vertices, subsequently further edits to the geometry may warp, deform or otherwise distort the UV values in undesirable ways requiring users to adjust the map or redo it altogether.

Thread: On complex models it may be useful to enable the 'Thread' option providing faster feedback on the smoothing results, but this reduces overall system interactivity as the smoothing calculations are processor intensive.

Modo 801 background constraint software#

The benchmarks were defined and executed by product experts with many years of experience with the two software packages. Combinations of both settings will control the overall smoothing of the model. 10 t Overview This benchmark project was conducted to measure the efficiency gains of MODO 801 compared with 3ds Max 2015 in a typical workflow situation. Iterations: Determines the number of times the Smoothing is applied. Once constrained, the 'Percent' amount will control the items position and rotation along the length of. Strength: Controls the amount of smoothing applied to the model. Path Constraints Types Path: The 'Path' constraint will bind an item to a user generated curve or the weighted average of multiple curves affecting both its position and rotation values orienting it to face along the curves normal direction.

It also employs any active Falloffs (including a 'Background Constraint') allowing users to target specific areas for the smoothing application. The Smooth tool will operate in the 3D and UV viewports, making it an excellent tool for smoothing overall topology or specific areas of a UV map. It works by having the curve element in the background layer (visible, but not selected). The settings to achieve this vary depending on the target geometry. Curve Constraint: The 'Curve Constraint' option allows users to use pre-drawn curves, either Spline or Bezier, and then constrain the brush strokes to the curve when painting, producing a very smooth, controlled and repeatable result. Found in the 'Deform' subtab of the modeling toolbox (sometimes as a sub-option of the ' Jitter' or ' Quantize' tools), the Smooth tool attempts to refine any jagged rough surface (also occasionally called jittered polygons).
