You can download your decimated model and do whatever the hell you want with it.<\/p>\n

I’ve also created a model viewer. I had to make custom pv3d camera control, because papervision3d’s Camera class has million bugs ( with rotations for example ). There are some bugs in environment mapping too, but I didn’t have time to fix them …<\/p>\n

Here’s my mesh decimator with some trial models: http:\/\/exp.teleranek.org\/teleqem\/Converter.php?showfiles<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n
