Silo is a 3D modeling software developed by Nevercenter . Unlike other 3D modeling packages, Silo focuses on fast modeling rather than texturing . The program has advanced capabilities for modeling any objects: from unbiased technology to complex high-poly organic objects. Among the features of the program, it is worth highlighting the creation of rotation surfaces , work with partition surfaces , and modeling using Boolean operations . A positive feature of the program is the use of hot keys .

Program Version History
Program Errors 2.1. There are drawbacks on the part of the brushes - if the coordinates (screen, world) are incorrectly set, the program can greatly slow down or close completely. Be careful (save more often) in the editing mode of UV coordinates. Turn off automatic file saving. The program does not understand the Cyrillic text. There are problems with long ways to save and open files. The program may be closed or incorrectly saved if there are many (more than 5 objects) in the scene. In version 2.2, most of the shortcomings were eliminated. In August 2017, a new version of the program was released - 2.5.0.
