A powerful, lightweight utility to download 3D models from Sketchfab. Features include single-model downloading, automated batch-scraping of user galleries, and seamless Blender integration for automatic shading and file conversion.
- Single & Batch Downloading: Download individual models via URL or scrape an entire user's gallery using the "User List" feature.
- Blender Integration: Automatically imports and sets up material shading in Blender.
- High-Quality Exports: Upgraded GLTF export with embedded material info and accurate normal data.
- Format Conversion: Native support for STL exports (requires Blender).
- Metadata Extraction: Automatically downloads model thumbnails and generates
model_info.jsonfor metadata preservation.
To get the most out of the tool (specifically auto-shading and STL support), you need to link it to your local Blender installation.
- Launch the Downloader.
- Navigate to Settings.
- Locate the Blender Path option and select the folder containing your Blender executable.
- Example:
"C:\Program Files\Blender Foundation\Blender 4.5"
- Example:
- (Optional) In the same menu, set up a Custom Download Folder for your saved models.
- Set the application mode to URL.
- Paste the direct URL of the Sketchfab model.
- Click Download. The tool will fetch the model and automatically run the Blender shading script.
- Click Create User List.
- Paste the URL of the Sketchfab User's profile. This will generate a JSON index of all their available models.
- Change the application mode to User List.
- Select the list you just created to automatically batch-download all of their models.
- Massively Improved GLTF Export: Better normal data and embedded material information straight out of the box.
- Format additions: Added STL support (Requires Blender integration).
- Auto-Thumbnails: Tool now automatically fetches and saves model thumbnails.
- Quad Recreation (WIP): Added a work-in-progress feature to reconstruct quads in Blender.
- Enhanced Metadata: Now generates a
model_info.jsonfile for deeper model data retention. - QoL Improvements: Cleaner file naming conventions for exported files.
- Bug Fixes:
- Reworked Blender shading to prevent crashes on models with complex/unusual material settings.
- Fixed an issue where models imported into Blender were missing normal data.
