MeshVault Connect

Send supported model downloads from the browser into your local MeshVault library.

MeshVault Connect links your browser to MeshVault so you can capture 3D model downloads and save them straight into your library. When you download a supported model file, the extension passes the file to MeshVault along with useful model metadata such as the title, source page, creator name, thumbnails, tags, gallery images, and description when available. MeshVault then imports the file into your selected library folder. MeshVault Connect is designed for makers, designers, collectors, and 3D printing users who want a cleaner way to keep downloaded models organized without manually moving, renaming, and sorting files.

Notes: - MeshVault Connect requires MeshVault to be installed and running, or a configured MeshVault Server. - MeshVault Server is available through meshvault.app and requires a license key unlock. - Site layouts and download systems can change, so metadata capture may vary by site or model page. - Some private or account-only models may expose less metadata than public model pages. - When downloading personal or owned models from Cults3D, it needs to be done from the model page. - If MeshVault is not running, locked, or unavailable, downloads can continue through the browser normally. - * Hiding AI models does not work on all sites.
