Hey Efflux, long time bro!
Been looking at the videos showing the new stuff in MODO. Have some more to look at this weekend. So far I think the soft has all that I do need, and will get everything I will need by the time I need it. But I need to check out a few more things before I decide.
@ Kadri, well it looks like I am in fact now really leaning to MODO over LW. After all the reading and looking and watching, I like what I saw of LW a lot. I think its nice soft.
But after all the tech stuff it comes down to a more basic psychological thing. I personally just feel better about MODO. *I* am just finding it to be more aprocable, and "feel" less overwhelmed at the prospect of learning it. It looks like it suits my personality a little better... The layout and the handling.
MODO is definitely VERY interested in me being happy as I work (not that LW is not also interested). But MODO just feels better... As stupid as all that may sound, after I did the point by point comparison, it just comes down to a tactile preference, even esthetic preference, which in software is much more tangible than imagery, I think.
BUT! I can't afford to buy anything for a few weeks, so I will probably change my mind 60-70 times by then.
So still listening to what you guys have to say if you want to say anything more!
Cheers all.
