Phungus Posted August 18, 2012 Report Posted August 18, 2012 Silo forum closing and moving to CGtalk.....will probably be the final death of an amazing app that has been dying for a long time, all thanksto the developers.... http://www.silo3d.com/forums/showthread.php?p=121226#post121226 Maybe a good time to make a proposition to buy Silo.....nudge, nudge, wink wink, know what I mean, know what I mean...

Tomas Egger Posted August 18, 2012 Report Posted August 18, 2012 Ola Phungus! I like Silo! Thanks Tom Quote
Phungus Posted August 18, 2012 Author Report Posted August 18, 2012 Yeah, me too....to bad it is lingering in the hands of developers more interested in earning some easy bucks than maintaining this great software. I think there is a market for a small,specialised low cost modeller like Silo.... what competition do you have? Hexagon? Seems to suffer the same fate as Silo currently......and IMO the workflow is a lot more cumbersome...Blender? Again, the workflow....plus its a fully featured 3D app......Wings 3D? Dying a slow death.....Modo? I said low cost... Now, a bit of overhauling and bugfixing, make it 64-bit, maybe some improved curve tools or better yet, take some inspiration from this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hAUSVwoUBiM (some modification of the retopotools to get there) and possibly Open SubD since that seems to be the future.... would make for one heck of a modeller.....

FelixCat Posted August 20, 2012 Report Posted August 20, 2012 Sad to see SILO final death. It is a great modeling app. Some little glitches, but nothing important. I still use it, but i'll move to MODO as soon as i can. Quote
Tomas Egger Posted August 20, 2012 Report Posted August 20, 2012 Ola Phungus and Felix, Interesting plug-in for Max. Thanks Tom Quote
