3DBrowser Pro is a must for viewing, optimizing and organizing your 3D assets (Autodesk® 3ds Max®, Autodesk® Maya®, FBX, Collada, GLTF, OBJ...) and creating thumbnail previews for Windows Explorer

$139.00

Overview3DBrowser is a desktop software for managing, visualizing and optimizing your 3D content.
3DBrowser offers a file explorer dedicated to 3D content, a powerful scene viewer with extensive functionality and an image viewer for the most common needs.
3DBrowser can be integrated into a wide range of 3D pipeline: architecture, video games, scientific data, 3D printing...

3DBrowser recognizes most of the images formats and many 3D formats:

Autodesk® 3ds Max®, Autodesk® Maya® (through provided plugins), Fbx, GLTF / GLTB, USDA/USDC/USDZ, E57 (point cloud), Blender 3& 4, Skp (Sketchup), C4d (Cinema 4D), Dae (Collada),Stl (Stereolithography) etc.

Advanced rendering and previewThe viewer is compatible with all the usual data, including those for textures, vertex colours and user normals.

The viewer works in conjunction with the 3DBrowser and Windows file explorer, producing preview thumbnails over which you have complete control. This enables the user to define a particular point of view combined with a specific display mode for a particular 3D file, an entire directory, or a specific 3D format.

The rendering incorporates normal maps and AO (ambient occlusion) to generate more realistic vignettes. Additionally, a variety of other display modes are available to enhance content (vignetting, mirroring, shadows) or reveal pertinent information (AO/NMAP/Wireframe mode) or cutaway views. (Pro version).Intuitive camera and filtering3DBrowser's powerful 3D viewer provides a royal road to the heart of your 3D data. Don't get lost in the navigation and inspect the scene from every angle.

Intuitive navigation lets you explore your complex models: targeted zoom, orbital rotation around a specific object or point, airplane mode, fast recentering come in handy for examining scene details or getting an overall view. You can save your specific viewpoints and recall them later if necessary.

Support for the E57 format also makes it easy to explore point clouds and complex data sets from laser scanners or 3D captures.

A Polygon Decimator...3DBrowser Pro includes Polygon Cruncher, a tool designed to reduce the number of faces on your objects while preserving the quality of their detail. Of course, you keep the object's textures and, if you wish, other information such as vertex colors or normals.

Polygon Cruncher's MagicCruncher feature automatically determines the ideal level of optimization for each object in a scene. You do not have to do anything, everything is done automatically....including the creation of PBR mapsOnce the simplification is complete, create normal or ambient occlusion (AO) maps to improve detail and rendering.
In this process, Polygon Cruncher reinjects the details of the high-resolution object into the simplified object, enhancing its resemblance to the original....and atlas creationDepending on your needs, the atlas creation tool will group your textures by detecting possible duplicates, simplify materials by grouping them, and drastically reduce draw calls.
You specify the size of the atlas and its textures and they will be grouped according to their PBR type (diffuse, ao, nmaps...).
