Features[edit]

This viewer can view 3D models from Hey! Pikmin. It can also show the textures and cameras used, by entering the textures or cameras tab on the right-side panel. On that same panel, one can find the list of bone animations, material animations, visibility animations and camera animations. Clicking an animation will select it, and by using the playback bar on the bottom, one can play the currently selected animation at any speed, and even backward.

It can also rotate/pan/zoom the camera around, show/hide the floor grid, show/hide the axis and center point, show/hide bones (not for Hey! Pikmin models), and show texture format information. Finally, it can export textures.
