To export from Modo 301/302 you will need to use the following exporter (linked below) which is a modified version of an existing exporter originally wrote by Richard Rodriguez and Zoltan Erdokovy (http://forums.luxology.com/discussion/topic.aspx?id=22048&show=Collada%20exporter).

To export from Modo to Collada make sure the mesh has been triangulated (and that all patches frozen), & for UV maps to be named as UV01, UV02, UV03.. and so on. You will need to set your Lightwave I/O content directory in Prefs for the output path for the plugin, then using F6 select collada_exporter_horde.lua.

After exporting into geo format lastly you will need to manually add the texture tags to the material files, example:

<TexUnit unit="0" map="wood01.png" />

Majority of the other features remain untested at this stage, other Collada exports tend to use incorrect or incompatible tags for the Horde Converter.
