No, I don't believe that it will read MoI 3DM files, because it only reads polygon mesh data from a .3dm file, and MoI only saves NURBS data to 3DMs, not any polygons.

But that's not really a problem - you can already reliably send data from MoI into Modo by exporting from MoI as LWO format.

Exporting by LWO actually gives you more capabilities as well, since LWO supports n-gons while polygon mesh objects inside of a .3dm file are limited to only having triangles and quads, not n-gons.
