While that decision resulted in a couple of major updates – notably Mudbox 2018.2, with its new dynamic tessellation system – work now seems to have stopped again. That’s an even slower pace of development than the releases before Autodesk “ decided to reinvest” in the software in 2017. The previous two updates only managed one listed new feature apiece: a ‘Send to Flame’ option in the case of Mudbox 2020, and automatic interface scaling in the case of Mudbox 2019.1. That makes Mudbox 2023 the second update in a row for which the only change listed is a new installer. Two successive updates without new features We contacted Autodesk to ask if there was an actual list of the other updates or bugfixes, but were told: “As the updates to Mudbox are very minor, there is no list of new features.” The latter is presumably due to support for Rocky Linux, which Autodesk has introduced as a replacement for the now-discontinued CentOS across its DCC apps, including in Maya 2023 and MotionBuilder 2023. This release includes minor updates, including a new installer on Linux.” The release notes for Mudbox 2023 read, in their entirety: “Welcome to Mudbox 2023. The update introduces support for Rocky Linux and a new Linux installer. Autodesk has released Mudbox 2023, the latest version of its digital sculpting and 3D painting software.
