| Which software programs open .x3db files [message #62526] Thu, 21 February 2013 15:43 UTC |

I was working with the Sake Set Creator and see that the files are output in .x3db format. I wanted to do some refinements to the object I created, and was wondering which software programs will open a file in .x3db format. It does not appear that blender or MeshLab will open these files. I am using Mac OSX so would prefer to know about Mac software, but would also be interested to know about Windows programs.

I just tried. It opened fine in Netfabb. It needed to be repaired.
It had 6016 shells and 6016 holes. Did an Automatic repair. OK 1 shell no holes but it had inverted normals. Pick shell, flip selected triangles. OK. Apply repair. You will need to export part now to a format you can work with.

Hey Rob:
Thanks so much for your reply. I must have had an older version of NetFabb for Mac. When I opened the .x3db file it gave me an error message, "Read past end of file". After reading your message, I downloaded NetFabb again, and it opened just fine!
Much appreciated.

I don't know of any software that does, but you can use the free XJ3D toolkit to convert them to VRML files:
