First ArchViz in Modo - Page 2

What is exactly the problem that you are having Ryan?

AlbertoEzzy · July 20th, 2007

Hi Ryan,

If it's not too much trouble, I suggest you check out the Luxology Forum - as I just did for you - and search with "CAD plan". You'll get a lot of answers like that...

Good luck!

Getting my 2D CAD plans into Modo as linework.

Once I get the hang of this frickin program, I'm gonna do a decent video tutorial on how to get CAD data into Modo, model in Modo, texture, and light the scene.

We could use a good tutorial on this. Start to Finish arch-viz project. Not the crappy Null Institute one.

Null Institute has a arch-viz tutorial.

I didn't find it very applicable with arch viz...there's no texturing info, nothing to really get you into it.

Bear in mine, my tutorial could be months off. I didn't have time to get my linework into Modo this weekend. I'll try more tonight.

I usually export a PDF of the CAD file, convert it to a bitmap and then map it as a texture on a plane.
You can then scale the plane until the dimensions are correct.

Try the contour line tutorial to get your CAD info into modo. Its pretty simple, just export to dxf.

Nice, I love the colors, the render reminds me of dali. I agree way to much motion blur on the walking character otherwise keep up the good work.

Hi,
It looks really good. Were the pople added in photoshop? If so, slow the guy in the white shirt down. Is he the waiter? He must be on peice work, he should earn a fortune!
If you think, he would never be that blured in real life. The camera's shutter spead would be very fast as it looks like a nice day so nothing would be blured that much. Anyway, artistic liscence to create the mood!
What,s the average camera speed for a sunny day? 1/1000 th sec? He looks to have travelled 300mm in the 1/1000 th sec. He would need to be doing 300mph!... Hire him.
Fantastic water.
