Nevercenter Silo
|
Pure, Focused 3D Modeling. Silo 2 is a focused 3D modeling software with the capability to effortlessly switch between organically sculpting high-polygon models and precisely controlling hard-edged surfaces. It can be used for anything from creating 3D characters for video games and movies to quickly exploring 3D architectural ideas.
Nevercenter Silo Features:
Hi-Res Displacement Painting:
1. Silo lets you freely intermix hi-res displacement painting with standard modeling for the ultimate organic workflow. Generate normal maps from arbitrary high-res and low-res model pairs.
2. Hard-Surface Precision:
3. Work in feet and inches, meters, or generic units, all of which can be adjusted to the scale of existing models. Combined with snapping tools, it becomes easy to make a 3 inch bevel or to make one wall precisely 3 meters away from another.
4. LSCM UV Unwrapping:
5. Quickly and interactively unwrap UV coordinates using advanced LSCM (Least Squares Conformal Maps) techniques to add texture maps to your models. Edit UV maps with the same modeling tools used for geometry creation, so you dont have to learn an extra toolset.
6. Fewer Mouse Clicks:
7. We know that every extra mouse click cuts into your workflow. Every tool in Silo has been streamlined and honed to work in a fast and predictable way, with fewer clicks.
8. Advanced Subdivision Surfaces:
9. Silos subdivision surfaces were built from the ground up to be incredibly fast and fully-integrated into all tools.
10. Topology Tools:
11. After sculpting in Silo or another software, you can use Silos Topology Tool to sketch new topology over your mesh, or use any number of Silos tools with surface snapping active to constrain all your geometry additions and edits to your scultped mesh to easily form new topology.
12. Minimal Interface:
13. Only a few useful buttons are on-screen in the default interface (which you can customize to have lots of buttons if thats your thing). Assign any function to any mouse or keyboard button, and youre left with little between you and your model.
14. 100% Customization:
15. Completely customize all mouse buttons, keyboard shortcuts, interface buttons, and UI colors to your liking. Make your middle mouse button perform extrudes if you want.
16. Scene Management:
17. All the advantages of layers but the flexibility of overlapping groups. Using the scene editor, any object or group can be instantly switched in and out of its own layer to manage complex models.
Limitations:
* After the trial period expires you can continue to use Silo as a learning version which will let you modify and save models with fewer than 50 polygons.
