What Vertexix is
Vertexix prepares 3D assets by remeshing sculpts, photogrammetry scans, and game assets into quad-dominant models, then unwrapping and baking detail onto the new mesh as PBR textures. Artists can guide manual remeshing with target quad counts and painted density, or use automatic remeshing. UV tools include four unwrap engines, an inspector, manual seam tools, and native UDIM support. Baking covers color, metallic-roughness, ambient occlusion, and tangent-space normal maps, with height, displacement, and vertex-color options. Paint mode supports PBR channels, image brushes, layers, masks, stencils, and pressure-sensitive styluses; sculpt mode includes twelve brush tools. The real-time PBR preview uses image-based lighting and supports glTF material extensions. Ultra adds OpenPBR shading and MaterialX load and save. Vertexix can display bones and weight maps, preview animation, and export rigged glTF; Ultra can also transfer bones, weights, and animation to the new mesh. Imports include FBX, glTF/GLB, OBJ, and Collada.
