MODO | Form Presets

Form Presets kind of flew under the radar when they were released with MODO 14. They’re actually super useful though and here’s a video showing 3 different applications for them.

If you want to create a separate config file (cfg file) to keep your form presets in the event you delete your main MODO CFG file - do this (from Funk on the MODO Slack)

After creating form presets, close modo or use file > config save, then open your modo config in a text editor.

Search for <atom type="FormPresets"> and copy that into a separate config

(eg. C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Luxology\Configs\presets_forms.cfg).

Here's a sample

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<configuration and="rel]1420" and="major]13">

<atom type="FormPresets">

<!-- Put your presets here -->

<hash type="PresetEntry" key="mypreset001:formPreset">

<!-- This is a fake preset --> </hash> </atom>

</configuration>
