The Foundry发布最新版3D建模软件MODO 902！

MODO 901。这个版本提供了一系列新的创建工具并能够提升工作效率。

“当我们开始着手开发901时，我们就致力于给我们的客户带来迄今为止最强大的MODO版本更新。” The Foundry公司MODO产品营销经理Shane Griffith说。“我们仔细研究了在我们主要市场中艺术家角色正在发生的变化、他们要面对的需求和MODO如何帮助他们在这变化的环境中获得成功。另外，我们仔细倾听来自客户群的声音来决定如何使MODO最大程度的成为他们最稳定，最有效的解决方案。最终我们推出了：MODO 901。”

在昨天的发布会上，The Foundry选了MODO 901的几个亮点让我们先睹为快，再过几天，将会发布100个新功能。这些功能将影响整个流程的内容创建，包括建模，材质，角色动画以及渲染，昨天发布的新功能有：

更好的布尔运算，其中还继承了获奖的MeshFusion（价值395）功能——当合成对象时可以出现持续高质量的结果

为日常建模工作新改进的工具，包括拓扑对称（topological symmetry）、分割（split）和填充切片（fill slice）工具选项、四填充图案模式、线性和径向对齐（linear and radial align）、以及多边缘切片（multi-edge slicing）等。

改进的常规和UDIM多项编辑UVs方法，其中包括改进的包装、变形、校正以及对准

分层的多分辨率雕刻，以及在每个网格水平的多个造型分层，在网格之间能够转变多分辨率的位移向量

更先进的材质烘焙，光线追踪算法可以让艺术家在烘焙时预览材质

“在901版本中包含MeshFusion是非常棒的消息；我已经看到它为硬表面建模提供了最有创意的工作流。”Ingenuity Engine的创意总监Grant Miller说。“901版本给我们带来了很多建模和界面改进，这确实能提高我们的日常工作效率。非常高兴在添加了强有力的新功能的同时核心功能也得到了提升

据了解，MODO将于今年年底正式上市销售，零售价为1799美元。MODO 801仍然可以购买，并且可以自动升级到901。The Foundry称将在今年5月份发布该软件的全部功能。

MODO is a complete solution for design exploration, game content creation, character animation, and the production of high-quality advertising images. Created with artistic workflows in mind, MODO puts the fun back into digital content creation and design. Artists and designers are free to explore and focus on creative efforts that maximize quality output in less time.

When it comes to modeling and sculpting, MODO 901’s renowned toolset just got better. Now a fully integrated feature included in MODO 901, MeshFusion takes away the challenge of complex and frustrating Boolean operations, making it easier to consistently produce high-quality models. Add to that topological symmetry, layered multi-resolution sculpting, new Slice and Cap options, Quad Fill, Linear and Radial Align, Multi-slice and more, and polygon modeling is faster, easier and more efficient than ever.

MeshFusion

Welcome to better Booleans for everyone! With MeshFusion, you can interactively intersect, add and subtract SDS objects, control the blending between, and intuitively edit the assembly instructions.

Multi-resolution sculpting

Work with multiple sculpt layers at each mesh level; displacement values from all the layers are blended together into the final result, with each layer’s contribution controlled by an Opacity attribute.

Topological symmetry

Don’t double your workload! When you have models that are topologically but not spatially symmetrical—such as posed characters—MODO 901 lets you still work on both sides at once.

Radial and Linear Align

Align polygon, edge or vertex selections into circles, n-sided shapes or straight lines with new align tools—great for bringing uniformity to areas of your model. The weight of the effect can be varied.
