How to Create Wireframe Effects When Rendering in Modo

By default, Modo does not come with an option to create the well-known and widely used wireframe effect when rendering the model. This is a major drawback; however, there's a script that can render your model in wireframe, and even control the thickness and color of the lines.

Instructions

1. • 1
     Launch a Web browser and navigate to Modonize to download the mm_WFRender script (see Resources).
   • 2
     Click the "mm_WFRender" link and save the ZIP archive on your hard disk.
   • 3
     Right-click the ZIP archive and select "Extract to mm_WFRender" to extract its contents in a new folder named "mm_WFRender."
   • 4
     Select the "mm_WFRender" folder and press the "Ctrl" and "C" keys at the same time to copy it to the clipboard.
   • 5
     Launch Modo, expand the "System" menu and click "Open User Scripts Folder" to open the scripts folder.
   • 6
     Press the "Ctrl" and "V" keys at the same time to paste the "mm_WFRender" folder from the clipboard.
   • 7
     Restart Modo, then open or create a model.
   • 8
     Expand the "Render" menu and click "Set up wireframe render" to create the wireframe effect.
   • 9
     Set the Contour Line Thickness and Color in the Final Render Output section, and click "Render" when you are satisfied with the result.
