What's new in Pro version?

Support of Python scripts

Main feature of Pro-version is the support of scripts. The standard functional of the program allows to find and extract geometry only from files with a simple structure. You need a tool that allows you to work with structures of any complexity, and this tool is programming.
A simple, but very powerful programming language Python allows you to read several lines of code from a file and build a model of them. Due to the simplicity of the syntax of the language, you do not need a programming experience to work with the program, you will have to just read the articles on our website.
All scripts are to be written in the built-in editor. It allows to quickly fix errors in the code when starting the script, and also to debug it to some extent. The program's API contains many useful methods of reading files and working with meshes. The site has a detailed description of all API's functions.
If it not the reason to start programming, than what is? : )

System of submeshes

In the modern 3D formats, the number of mesh can reach several dozen. The basic version of the program supports only one. This problem is also solved in the Pro-version. Submeshes can be compared with layers in graphic editors: there is a separate object on each layer, and together they form a single image. If we talk about sabmeshes in 3D models, then it can be tongue, eyes, skin, which together form one object – the head.
In Model Researcher Pro, meshes can be added one by one using a graphical interface, while setting unique parameters for reading. You can also perform operations with meshes through scripts.

Normal vectors

In addition to meshes and texture coordinates, Model Researcher Pro supports the normal vectors. When the normals are automatically calculated, the light and shadow often fall incorrectly, which leads to blackouts on some parts of the model. In the tab Normals, you can specify parameters for reading normals and their indexes. Graphical and text output of normals is also available.

Materials support

Using scripts, you can assign a unique material to both the mesh itself and each face. At the moment, a color and texture can be assigned as materials. In the future, other parameters will be added.


Other hunky-dory things

In addition to all of the above, a number of useful functions have been added to the program. One of them is the support of mathematical calculations in form fields. It is enough to write a mathematical expression in the field and press Enter to get the result.



Now the text output shows more information: minimum and maximum values of x, y, z vertices, texture coordinates and normals. As a rule, the value of the maximum index in the faces corresponds to the number of vertices in the mesh. In the normals information, there is a useful parameter – Sq. It must be equal to one in the correct normals.

What is more, a right-click menu has been added to the text field. From it you can easily move to vertices, faces, normals or texture coordinates.
