Silo 2022 released

Nevercenter has announced the release of Silo 2022, the latest version of its low-cost sub-division modelling tool. A major change in this release is the addition of Pixar’s OpenSubdiv library to power the tool’s subdivision surfaces. According to the developers, this results in improved RAM usage of up to 50% on high subdivision models as well as a more interactive and fluid modelling experience. In addition, Silo’s memory management has been completely redesigned to future proof the application.

Silo looks a little different in this release. Many aspects of the UI have been improved with a more modern look. 

There are also several useful workflow updates like being able to highlight manipulators and geometry selections across multiple viewports without having to click to activate the viewport, and each tool options window now opens in its own window rather than reusing a common window. Numerical fields now work much better with scrolling and mouse dragging. 

Silo costs $159 for a non-perpetual license. Find out more on the Nevercenter website and watch the tutorials for the new features on YouTube.
