v1.6 Released: Local AI Smart Cutout, Smarter Automatic Slicing, 3D Preview

Sharp Stock · published 31 Jul 2026, 12:08 UTC · build 24036683

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

v1.6 is now officially available.

1. Local AI Smart Cutout and Batch Processing

  • For complex edges, character art, or source images, use Local AI Smart Cutout to create transparent PNGs

  • Windows supports DirectML acceleration; macOS offers a natively optimized CoreML model

  • Model downloading, extraction, and verification are all handled in the app, and image processing remains entirely local

2. More Flexible Automatic Slicing

  • New gap-based detection helps automatic slicing adapt to different asset layouts

  • After previewing the slices, you can choose to apply Local AI Cutout to them

  • Assets with intricate edges that are difficult to process using color tolerance alone now offer more room for adjustment

3. Inspect Details Directly in 3D Preview

  • 3D model preview supports rotation, zooming, and panning

  • Inspect models more conveniently without leaving the asset library

4. Smoother Everyday Asset Organization

  • When an imported or generated asset has the same filename as an existing file, choose to overwrite it, keep both with automatic renaming, or skip it

  • Scanning now displays progress

  • Before using SVN Revert, you can review the list of files that will be restored

  • Batch PNG compression now supports Tinify, while Squoosh remains available as an existing compression option

5. More Interface Languages

  • Russian, Korean, and Brazilian Portuguese interfaces have been added

That covers everything in the v1.6 update. If you encounter any issues, please let us know through Settings > Feedback.
