MeshVault Connect

Connect your browser to MeshVault Desktop

MeshVault Connect links your browser to the MeshVault Windows app so you can capture 3D model downloads and save them straight into your local library. When you download a supported model file, the extension passes the file to MeshVault along with useful model metadata such as the model title, source page, creator name, thumbnails, tags, description when available. MeshVault then imports the file into your selected library folder on your Windows PC. 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 and renaming files and keep it all in a well organized library with all the details for every model at your fingertips.

Notes: - MeshVault Connect requires the MeshVault Windows app to be installed and running. - 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 via the model's page - If the MeshVault app is not running, downloads can continue through the browser normally. - * Hiding of AI models does not work on all sites
