IqeBrowser is a program to browse IQE, IQM (Inter-Quake Model format) and many other 3D models. Any 3D model can be saved as IQM (a binary format) or IQE (a text format) file. Some model processing tools are integrated to resize, shift, rotate, reskin ... the model and also to create/ modify skeletons or animations. IqeBrowser is ready to use for a windows system. Source is included. Highlight of the V2.14 release are normal handling, model comments and the newest version V3.2 of the assimb libary.
The highlights of IqeBroswer V2.14 are:
- Dialog Tools/Options
New dialog. Until new there is only one option:
* Import/Assimp normals
Handling normals on 'assimp' import of models.
Values are: Auto, Face groups, All faces
- Dialog Tools/Mesh/Model settings
New dialog. Until new there is only one setting:
* Normals, a radiobutton with value
* Face groups
Average all face normals sharing the same
vertex (visual keep corners).
* All faces
Average all face normals sharing the same
vertices with the same coordinate.
This results in visual smoothed corners.
- Exporting .obj (wavefront object) files.
* BUGFIX, the normals was inverted.
* Output smooth setting
s 1 if model normal setting is 'All faces'
s off for other model normal settings
- Dialog Tools/Mesh/Model comments
New dialog. Handl model specific comments.
Only .iqe and .iqm files support this feature.
View, add or change the comments.
- Dialog Tools/Mesh/Parts
If a model has only 1 part, this part is
not blinking if the model part is selected.
- Model creator.
Cleaned code a little bit. Should be
a little bit faster now.
- Assimp library, the model import library.
Changed to version 3.2 (from 3.1.1).
- Kinect dll loading
The Kinect dll is now dynamically loaded when opening the Kincect dialog.
IqeBroswer should now run fine in Unix (wine environment).

IqeBrowser is specially tailored for the Ryzom Assets (see below).
IqeBrowser is ready to use for a windows system.

Recommendation for a 3D model drawing application
Sculptris is a free to use 3d painting and sculpting application. It's obj importing and exporting works together with the IqeBrowser obj importing and exporting.
Use IqeBrowsers model creator to create models. Use Sculptris to paint to the model or to manipulate the model with the sculpting part.
See pixologic.com/sculptris for sculptris description and a free download.
Features
- Browse through the file system and shows IQE and IQM files as 3D models.
Open Asset Import Library (short name: Assimp) is used to view more
then 40 other 3d model formats.
see: Assimp.sourceforge.net
- Each viewed model can be exported as IQM (a binary format), IQE (a text format) file or OBJ
(wavefront object) file.
Tools to
* Resize, shift or rotate models.
* Reskin models
* Merge multiple models/animations to one model
* Skeleton modification, creation, load, save
* Animation modification, creation
* Timline editor with keyflags
* Plots of position, angles or sizes
* Kinect V1 support with realtime retarget and recording of animations
* Model creator based on meta balls.
- The settings of checkboxes, values, ... are remembered.
- Positions and size of main and tools windows are remembered and reused on next oben.
