Are you able to successfully run Modo from a command line
to render a particular scene with a specified frame range?
If so, it should be possible to make a submit script for it.
Let me know if any guis pop open during the command line rendering,
as that could be a problem.
Send me the command line usage and an example command line
that works for you to render a particular frame range of a
particular scene, and I can help make you a submit script for it.
It seems a bit weird but you have to generate a txt file in a format such
as
log.toConsole true
scene.open "/Directory/Scenes/file.lxo" normal
pref.value render.threads auto
@ChangeRenderFrameRange 1 100
@ChangeRenderOutputPaths /Directory/Output/
render.animation {*}
app.quit
then run this command point to the text file (Mac OS X)
/Applications/modo.app/Contents/MacOS/modo_cl < renderfiles.txt
Not sure if there is a better way yet.
Thanks,
