Hi, I had Maxwell plugin 3.0100 (and previous version before that) installed in 701 and was not quite aware that it defaulted to adding Maxwell specific objects to all scenes I opened after the plugin was installed.
I just upgraded to Modo 801 (without installing any Maxwell plugin) and could not open any of the 701 scenes that had auto-added Maxwell objects.
Modo 801 just chokes upon finding these unknown objects and hangs indefinitely.
I then found and tried the "Remove Maxwell properties from scene items" and used that in the plugin window in 701.
This seemed to work as the 701 scene loaded without problems in 801.
However when hitting F8 (preview render) or F9 (render) in 801 it still finds unknown "maxwell.object" I select "Yes to all" to skip this and then it finds "maxwell.camera" and again I select "Yes to all" to skip but then 801 just hangs.
SO, it seems to me that your plugin needs to be updated to really remove ALL maxwell.xxxx objects so that I can load my 701 scenes into 801.
I am not interested in installing the Maxwell (beta) plugin in 801 until this is fixed as essentially I then become dependent on having the Maxwell plugin installed always because the plugin has added special objects that make the file format in essence very proprietary and no longer compliant with standard Modo.
Hope this can be fixed rather quickly
