Welcome to BabylonDreams modo Pipeline Kit’s documentation!

The BabylonDreams modo Pipeline kit contains scripts, configs and functions to make working in modo smoother.

It relies on bd_pipeline, our pipeline wide connective glue library. Please see the bd_pipline documentation for more details.

For feature requests or support you can contact me via email: mailto:a.kucera@babylondreams.de

Also, if you are interested in beta testing the kit for immediate access to new features and bug fixes, let me know via email as well.

Disclaimer

I am not a trained programmer and I usually don’t have much time to code. So be prepared for ugly code, quick hacks and stuff that is half finished. You have been warned.
