Many people have made a tool to help in the creation of 3D games. If you have made one, please post the url to the topic here so people can find them a little easier.

Tools would be something like a model creator/convertor, world creator, etc.

Please do not post tutorials here.

Please use the graphics resource topic to post other tools not made specificly for GM (ex. Blender)

I guess I should post KingSpace too. It supports terrain and textured models. For further insight, here is the topic: http://forums.gamema...showtopic=96927

And a nice tutorial for KingSpace in PDF format can be found here: http://forums.gamema...showtopic=97978

KingSpace supports .obj files and .3do files.

GMModeler

Uses a friendly modelling interface with the new model functions of GM6.1 for an easy way to create and use your own models.

Topic
Source code and examples included!

[OmicronGamer]

Omicron Modeler

This was originally created as a tool to help with development of Missionary 2. It contains fully-functional polygon and primitive modeling capability, along with UV mapping, saving and loading of models, and exporting to gm's 3d model format. It sports a cursor-based fully 3d development interface, which facilitates easy development of models. In addition, it boasts a clean interface with many advanced options to speed development. It is also one of the most rapidly-developing model making programs on the gmc today.

[BusterBot858]

I created a 3D library that even has actions for 3D sounds as well as shapes, primitives (of all types), lighting, etc. It can be found here.

Quick Studio

Quick studio is a 3 in one program.
It is a terrain editor, 3d modeler, and texture editor all in one.
You can create models/terrain easily and quickly and export it as a native gm model.

<span style='font-size:22pt;line-height:100%'>SimpleModels v1.0</span>

Now it is released!!!

SCREENSHOTS quick load

It comes with an EXAMPLE (the ZIP contains modeller and example) showing its abilities (watch the screenshots!)


Now it has:
-Good easy interface
-The ability to see what you are modelling (EASY PREVIEW MODE)
-All the basic shapes can be drawn (cilynder,block,wall,floor,cone,ellipsoid)
-The ability to combine difficult models from easy(simple) shapes (buildings,cars,furnitur,planes...)
-It doesn't slow down your computer cause it uses D3D graphix!
-<span style='font-size:11pt;line-height:100%'>Game Maker v6.0</span> or higher
-And you don't need any converters to see your models (made by it) in your games!

-Just watch the example wich comes with it and you'll see!!!


Just download it worth it!







From the idea to animated model.

GM Modelling (v.1.0)

Hey,

My modelling-program is called GM Modelling (v.1.0) and it is created in and for GameMaker.
You can use all the shapes that already exists in GameMaker (v.6.1), but this'll save you alot of time...

I strongly suggest you to read the instructions before trying out the program.

Main Fetures:
-All the shapes that already exists in GameMaker
-Surface- & Triangle-shapes
-Saving/Loading "Projects", of course
-Diffrent moving posibilities (move vertex, rotate object, change size & move the whole object)
-Zoom in/out in the editor
-Endless model-size
-Multiple object selecting
-Duplicating objects
-Diffrent "views"; Top-view (x/y), Front-view (x/z), Side-view (y/z) & Perspective-view (3D pre-view)

Screenshot:
www.freewebs.com/evilcookiegames/screenshot_gmm.jpg
(Even if I use "http://..." the link doesn't work... Copy and paste into broser!)

Homepage:
http://www.freewebs....s/downloads.htm

All my files are uploaded on FileFront:
http://hosted.filefront.com/EvilCookie

(You can find other download-links on my homepage.)

If you need any help about the program: PM me.
Also, if you have any tip for further updates contact me, because I'm planning on updating the program...

Enjoy!

New Obj Converter!

This is more of an Obj Model animation system at this point, though it can still be used to import simply one object file for use.

Allows you to load a series of object files into GM as a DS_LIST of model indexes..

Allows you to load individual meshes from a .obj file

Allows interpolation of frames... that is creating frames between the keyframes in a model. This is the trick the pros use! (Note that frames must have identical number of faces and identical vt (texture) coordinates or the results will be um... very ugly).

Direct Link to the converter topic.

Building Constructor

I actually made this program to ease the the creation of buildings for Newcitysim
but its also really suitable for other games, since it exports objects as d3d_model.

Features:
- mouse-controlled, easy to use modeller (thanks to Yourself's 2d to 3d script)
- saving as d3d model
- 7 different standard shapes: block, cylinder, cone, wedge, arch, floor and wall
- Really easy UV-mapping
- automatic normal fixing for basic shapes, it doesn't matter which way you drag, the normals are always good.
