Germanium Building Composer is a tool which helps developers to compose full-3D COLLADA datasets into buildings with Building, Blocks and Level (BBL) information, allowing developers to bring fully textured 3D building models coupled with interior furnishing into their GermaniumWeb applications.

Germanium Building Composer 1.1.3 has been released

12 Nov 2009 Update

Release Notes

The previous installer (1.1.2) used a security certificate which expired on 11 Nov 2009, resulting in a harmless warning during installation. This new installer (1.1.3) uses a new certificate which removes the warning. Building Composer itself is unchanged.

8 Sep 2009

Release Notes
  • New features
    1. Texture files references which do not match the actual files' capitalization (e.g. abc.png vs Abc.png) are now automatically fixed, for easier deployment on webservers that are case-sensitive.
    2. Experimental support for polygons and polylists has been added.
    3. Support for COLLADA files with unicode names, e.g. 一楼.dae
    4. Building Composer now warns the user of unsaved changes when closing the project.
  • Updates:
    1. Improved support for COLLADA files produced by Google Sketchup.
    2. Improved support for COLLADA files produced by Autodesk 3DS Max 2009 and 2010's build-in COLLADA exporter.
    3. Improved user interface for the export preview. Also, the BBL properties are now browsable.
  • Fixes:
    1. Fixed a crash bug when certain COLLADA files from Google Sketchup are imported.
    2. Fixed: Building Composer was treating .daes that contained only a flat plane as invalid.
