mattcox / pmodel_createPlane_incremental.cpp
Last active July 30, 2022 20:27
Demonstrates a simple plane mesh operation for the Modo procedural modelling system. This demonstrates how to do incremental updates that create the polygon on the first evaluation, and then updates point positions on subsequent evaluations. Incremental updates can significantly improve performance, as Modo will only rebuild the surface for draw…

Last active August 26, 2021 14:27
Example of a simple selection operation for the Modo procedural modelling system that selects every other polygon. It demonstrates how to use thread slots, to allow selection to be evaluated from multiple threads

mattcox / EvaluateParticles.cpp
Created November 20, 2017 19:40
This demonstrates how to evaluate a particle source for it's particles. By default, only position, transform and ID are evaluated, however it could easily be extended to support other types.
