MODO | Introduction to Falloffs

This collection of videos introduces the Falloff options in MODO.

| Show Falloffs

This video is a quick introduction to the Show Falloff display option in MODO, which enables you to better visualize the effect a falloff has over a selection.

| Falloffs: Linear and Radial

This video is a quick introduction to using Linear and Radial Falloffs in MODO, which are two common ways to gradually decrease the intensity of a tool across a defined range.

Here is another look at the Symmetric Option for Linear Falloff:

 | Cylinder Falloff

This video is a quick introduction to the Cylinder Falloff option in MODO, which uses a circular falloff that extends across the length of a virtual cylinder.

 | Airbrush

The Airbrush falloff option is a powerful, yet often overlooked feature in MODO that allows you to paint a tools influence onto a mesh. This quick video introduces the Airbrush Falloff option showing it used with multiple tools.

| Screen Falloff

This video is a quick introduction to the Screen Falloff option in MODO, which defines the falloff using a disc drawn in screen space.

| Element Falloff

Element Falloff is an amazingly powerful feature that can become even more powerful when you understand and use the Connected Elements options. This video takes a quick look at the Connected Elements Options when working with Element Falloff in MODO.

| Noise Falloff

This video is a quick introduction to the Noise Falloff in MODO, which uses a three-dimensional noise pattern to modulate the influence of a tool on the selected geometry.

| Curvature Falloff

This video is a quick introduction to the Curvature Falloff in MODO, which generates a falloff that attenuates across changes in surface topology.

| Vertex Map Falloff

This video is a quick introduction to the Vertex Map Falloff option in MODO, which converts values of the currently selected Vertex Map to values representing falloff strength.

 | Path Falloff

This video is a quick introduction to Path Falloff in MODO, which uses a curve to determine the area of influence of a tool.

| Lasso Falloff

This video is a quick introduction to the Lasso Falloff option in MODO, which uses lasso selections drawn in screen space to determine the area of influence of a tool.

 | Image Falloff

This video is a quick introduction to the Image Falloff option in MODO, which uses the brightness of an image to determine the area of influence of a tool. 

| Selection and Soft Selection Falloffs

This video is a quick look at the Selection and Soft Selection Falloffs in MODO, which allow you to gradually decrease the intensity of a tool based on a selection area.

| Coplanar Falloff

This video is a quick introduction to the Coplanar Falloff option in MODO, which attenuates the falloff based on the angle between the selected polygon’s normals.

| Falloffs: Using Multiple Falloffs

This video is a quick introduction to using multiple Falloffs in MODO.

| Convert Falloff Cache

This video is a quick introduction to the Convert Falloff Cache command in MODO. Convert Falloff Cache is a powerful command that transfers internal falloff weight data generated by Falloff options such as Element, Selection, Screen and Air Brush into a regular weight map.
