Object Viewer


■ Overview
This tool allows to preview one or more object files. Objects can be added at any time and also reloaded to quickly reflect changes. Keyboard and mouse controls allow to move and rotate the camera. If objects contain errors, a report can be optionally displayed.

Files that are passed as command line arguments are automatically opened at startup. If a CSV file is determined to be a CSV route instead of a CSV object, RouteViewer.exe will be started if present inside the same folder as ObjectViewer.exe. This allows you to link CSV files against either Object Viewer or Route Viewer and still have the correct tool opening the file.

Please note that Object Viewer always interprets files as UTF-8 unless a byte order mark indicates a different Unicode encoding. Non-Unicode encodings are not supported.

Supported object file formats:
●   B3D
●   CSV
●   X
●   ANIMATED
