Overview

Main 3DBrowser window showing 3D file thumbnails using the custom view mode that gives some useful details about the files3DBrowser for 3D Users is a browser for your 3D, photo, video and audio files. This is a fast and powerful media manager to browse thousands of files thanks to its thumbnails window. You’ll find user friendly features to display, organize and edit your 3D and images files. You’ll get the most complete tool to document and find your files on your computer or your local network.

3DBrowser recognizes more than 60 images and videos files format, many 3D files format and most of the audio files format:

Browse scenes stored in your ZIP archives without decompressing them.

Display your files the way you want:

  • Small thumbnails to browse thousand of files in a split second.
  • Main 3DBrowser window displaying 3D files contained in several folders and filtering this content. In this view it shows only the zip, skp and 3ds files. Note that 3DBrowser also previews zip files when it contains an image or a scene.A customizable display mode to view the information you need such the width and height of your images, the number of faces of your 3D files or the title and the length of your MP3 files.

For your comfort and a better navigation, 3DBrowser fits all your needs by:

3DBrowser includes extra tools such a folder tree size view (ideal for cleaning your hard disk), an uppercase/lowercase filename conversion, a file splitter for your large files…

View, modify and edit your photos and 3D files

Main 3DBrowser window displaying 3D files contained in several folders and filtering this content. In this view it shows only the zip, skp and 3ds files. Note that 3DBrowser also previews zip files when it contains an image or a scene.Open your 3D files in the built-in OpenGL viewer.

You display the scene using one of the many rendering mode and selectthe best point of view for creating the scene thumbnail. You clearly see the scene hierarchy and the materials. You’ll find the tools you’ll need every day:

  • Scene conversion from/to many file formats
  • Textures or vertex colors display
  • Mesh subdivision display and conversion (patch)
  • Unify or flip normals
  • Merge near or confused points
  • Mesh optimization using Polygon Cruncher (license including Polygon Cruncher)
  • Slides show
  • Print
  • Edit material and display a complete report about objects

Open your images or your videos in the built-in viewer.

You clearly view the layers of your images (I.e. alpha channel) and can use one of the many available tools:

  • An image viewer displays most of the existing image formats, including HDR image files (exr for example). The viewer displays transparency areas image (alpha channel). It includes many editing features such red eyes correction, image conversions, rotate to horizontal feature, liquid resize...Crop & resize

Optimize your 3D scenes with Polygon Cruncher

Polygon Cruncher for 3DBrowser allows optimizing any one of the 3D files recognized by 3DBrowser.

Polygon Cruncher for 3DBrowser reduces the number of polygons of your objects without changing their appearance. You keep all details even at high optimization ratio. You also keep texture information and vertex colors.

Polygon Cruncher is included in 3DBrowser. This mesh optimizer allows to simplify million of polygons scene. It keeps textures, normals and vertex painting. A batch module is also available.You see the scene as long as you optimize it in order to choose the best simplification level. You can also batch optimize scenes stored in a folder and automatically decline them at various levels of details.

Polygon Cruncher uses an exceptional algorithm, which gives incomparable results, really better than what you can get with optimizer provided with 3DS Max or Lightwave.

Polygon Cruncher is really simple to use. This multi-awarded software is used by most of the 3D and video game companies.

Process a set of files using batch processing

Automate the tasks you perform regularly and process a set of files in a wink.

You wish to convert a set of images to JPEG quality 60? To create images from your 3D scenes? Clean scenes you get from the web?

Select a predefined macro or create your a macro command that matches your needs.

Organize your files efficiently

3DBrowser manages IPTC, EXIF and XMP metadatas. A window allows to edit the meta-data (keywords, description, notes, subject...) for your images or your 3d scenes. The meta datas are exported automatically to your files and the update of this data is transparent for the user. 3DBrowser also allows to export these data to a text file, to search or to filter among your images and 3D scenes using the metadatas.To organize your files you must first know them! 3DBrowser gathers information contained in your files:

  • EXIF tags for digital photos (giving a precious information on the picture-taking condition)
  • Faces and points number, materials for 3D files
  • MP3 tags for audio files.

You can also document each file using keywords or one of the many available information fields (author, legend…).

These information can then be exported back to the file metadata (EXIF, IPTC, XMP).

You also use them to customize the main window and select the information you want to display.

This information can be printed in a contact sheet, displayed in a slides show, used to perform a targeted search, or imported/exported from/to an external database.

Win flexibility and save your time using albums

The album feature allows you to gather files located in different folders into a single catalog. Your files are not duplicated unnecessarily as an album only contains references to them.
