List of awesome model importer libraries

  • The Asset-Importer-Lib - Open Asset Import Library (short name: Assimp) is a portable Open Source library to import various well-known 3D model formats in a uniform manner. The most recent version also knows how to export 3d files and is therefore suitable as a general-purpose 3D model converter.
  • OpenFBX - Lightweight open source FBX importer
  • FBX - C++ Library for reading and writing FBX files
  • fbx - Single-file binary FBX importer.
  • StepCode - STEPcode (formerly NIST's STEP Class Library) is used with IFC, STEP, and other standards that utilize the technologies of ISO10303 (STEP). It generates C++ and Python from EXPRESS (10303-11) schemas. The code is capable of reading and writing STEP Part 21 exchange files. It also utilizes Parts 22 and 23 (SDAI and its C++ binding). http://stepcode.org
  • TinyGLTF - Header only C++11 tiny glTF 2.0 library
  • glTF-Toolkit - A collection of tools for modifying and optimizing glTF assets
  • FBX2glTF - A command-line tool for the conversion of 3D model assets on the FBX file format to the glTF file format.
  • IfcOpenShell - Open source IFC library and geometry engine
  • Meshoptimizer - Mesh optimization library that makes meshes smaller and faster to render
  • lib3mf - Lib3MF is the reference implementation of the 3D Manufacturing Format file standard http://3mf.io
  • Mesh-processing-library - C++ library and programs that demonstrate mesh processing techniques in computer graphics published at ACM SIGGRAPH in 1992–1998
  • SharpGLTF - A glFT importer/exporter for .Net

List of awesome model / asset utility libraries and applications

  • binary-gltf-utils - Bundles glTF models, images, shaders and other assets into a Binary glTF (.glb) file.
  • Blender - A free and OS-based 3D-modeling software for modeling, animations and more.
  • Free-CAD - A free and OS-based CAD system.

How to contribute

  • Clone from this repository
  • Prepare a branch with your model in it. Place the model at the model-bd, select the name of the format in the folder and create another folder with the name of your model. If you want o share some special information abou the model add a readme-file.
  • Create a pull-request
  • The pull-request will be reviewed and merged afterwards. We will add your name to the list of contributors.
