Create an 3D assets library

To create a 3D libary follow this guide: 3D Assets

Support for 3D assets

Adding the support for 3d assets will be incremental. The first steps are done and more advanced support will follow in future releases of the software.

Currently supports format for the 3D viewer: fbx, obj

Planned	Features
Phase 1 DONE	3d viewer support FBX / OBJ display textures (simple)
Phase 2 PLANNED	support glTF / glb support USD / USDZ improve display/handling of textures
Phase 3	display animation support Alembic support MaterialX …

3D Viewer

The primary goal of the software is to help you find the correct asset initially. This tool is not intended to function as a 3D application. Instead, it assists you in obtaining the file paths to the 3D assets, which you can then open in the 3D application of your choice.

Textures

To display the texture of a 3D model in the 3D viewer, the additional elements must have the layer type set to texture and their names must be on the following list to be mapped correctly:

Texture channel	Additional Name
color/diffuse	`beauty` `color` `diffuse` `diff`
alpha	`alpha`
ambient occlusion	`ambientocclusion` `ao`
emissive	`emissive`
metalness	`metalness` `metal`
normal	`normal` `norm`
roughness	`roughness` `rough`
