Attached Link: Misfit Modeller 3D

MM3D, aka Misfit Modeller 3D

It is an open source application, and is very easy to use.

While it is still a bit limited compared to the better known commercial apps, it is definitely worth a look.

runs on GNU-Linux, *BSD, OSX and Windows.

I had a go with the Windows version, and it does show promise. No way would this be anybody's main modeller yet, but for someone who is using free apps, it may well have some useful features that the others don't. I haven't tried all the tools yet, but I did run a test mesh through it following the method described on my OBJ Fidelity page (linked).

It managed quite well - it preserved UV mapping, groups and vertex count, but lost all the material zones and triangulated all the facets. OBJ saving allows you to choose coordinate precision up to 6 decimal places, and whether you want normals or not.

A large mesh (V4) crashed it, though.

Also, the file load dialogue is very peculiar, on Windows at least; I couldn't see all of the folders on my disk, and had to copy my test meshes elsewhere before they would show up.

Thanks for the heads up.

What about Wings3D?

um, yeah, they use triangular faces in it.

I did say it is limited. :D

for a free app, with only a small user base, they are doing a credible job developing.

Wings3D..

not my first choice, since the box modeling style it uses doesn't fit my own style of working.
