Is the Footpaths 3D model free for commercial use?

Yes. It is free under the 1DesignTool 3D library license: use it in personal and commercial work — games, apps, websites, renders, ads and client projects — and modify it as you like, with no credit required. What you can't do is re-sell or re-distribute the file on its own or inside a model pack.

What file format is it, and how big is it?

A single binary glTF 2.0 file (.glb), 201 KB: 2,620 triangles, 7,860 vertices and 12 materials, modelled in metres at 4.0 m × 68 cm × 4.0 m.

Can I animate Footpaths?

It ships as a static mesh. Its 8 named parts are separate nodes, so you can move or animate each one in your engine.

Which engines and tools can open it?

Anything that reads glTF 2.0. three.js, React Three Fiber, Babylon.js, Godot 4 and Blender import the GLB directly; Unity and Unreal Engine load it through their glTF importers. The snippets above show the exact code for three.js, React Three Fiber, Godot and Blender.

How was the Footpaths 3D model made?

Claude Code (Claude Opus 5.5) generated it inside 1DesignTool's 3D template from a written brief, then the design kit's checks verified the geometry and the GLB before it was published. You can make your own the same way with 1DesignTool.

Footpaths

A low-poly 4 × 4 m Rice Terraces ground tile. A raised earth dyke path winds between two flooded rice paddies and is crossed near the front by an irrigation cut with a small dark-wood plank footbridge. All four edges are flat, so it tiles with the kit's paddy pieces and chains front to back with copies of itself.

How it was made

The brief given to 1DesignTool's “3D object” template:

Footpaths for the Rice Terraces kit. Design it as one clear asset at believable real-world scale for that setting (state the size in metres in meta.notes), with its main parts modelled and named, readable at thumbnail size and from every orbit angle. Make it a ground piece on an exact 4 × 4 m footprint with flat edges at y = 0 that tile seamlessly with its neighbours in every direction; origin at the tile centre. This is one part of the Rice Terraces kit (Low-poly style, flat-lowpoly direction): Stepped green hills and small farms. Use ONLY the kit palette, by name: rice green #3a883a, water mirror #3997c6, earth brown #6b4a2e, straw #d7c375, rice green dark #235223, water mirror dark #286a8a, rice green light #5db15d, water mirror light #79b5d2, soot black #1b1b22, warm white #f2ede2, mid grey #7d828c, dark wood #3d2a1c. Every material's `name` must be exactly the palette colour it uses — the GLB carries these names so the kit recolours as one; an unnamed material fails delivery. Kit knob: expose a param `growthStageWater` (0–1, default 0.5) for the kit's "Growth stage (water" setting wherever it makes sense on this part, and keep that id.

Note: Size: exactly 4.00 × 4.00 m and 0.68 m tall at the bridge posts. The paddy floor sits at 0.12 m, the water at 0.155 m and the path top at 0.42 m (0.90 m wide, battered grassy sides). The bottom rests on y = 0, the origin is at the tile centre and the front faces +Z. How it tiles: the paddy floor and the 0.08 m half-width, 0.07 m-high edge bunds match the kit's terrace tile, so any edge meets the paddy pieces flush and two edges meet as one full bund. The path runs along Z and enters and leaves at x = 0 on the front and back edges. Its meander is one full sine period, so the slope matches as well and footpath tiles chain front to back. On its own, each path end is a flat earth cut face. The GLB has 2,620 triangles in 12 meshes, is static and carries no animation clip. Every material is named exactly after a kit palette colour. The exporter writes one material per mesh, so some names repeat (12 materials, 7 distinct colours at the default); recolour by name. growthStageWater (the kit's 'Growth stage (water' knob): below 0.3 sparse light seedlings in flooded paddies; 0.3–0.72 green rice in alternating rows standing in water (the default); 0.72 and above ripe straw rice and dry verge grass; at 0.85 and above the paddies are drained, so the water mesh is dropped. Straw appears only at the ripe stage, so the default export does not use it. Params are baked into the GLB at their defaults and change the geometry only when the scene is rebuilt in the viewer; only the defaults were rendered and checked. All four tiling params must match between neighbouring footpath tiles for the path to line up. The viewer uses exposure 0.6 rather than the direction's 1.05 so the greens and water keep their colour; this does not affect the GLB. glb-lint: 0 errors and 5 expected heuristic warnings: material count and duplicate names (per-mesh export), non-indexed geometry (kept for hard flat facets), overlapping sibling bounds (path colour strips and rice tones share the same area), and 'detached' flags on the water sheet, bridge and stones (each part is one merged mesh, seated on the slab or path). plan-check rejects only the hyphenated library part ids (its regex allows no hyphen); the same plan with the slug de-hyphenated passes. three-check and the GLB reload keep all 8 ids.
