Is the Termite mounds 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), 219 KB: 2,889 triangles, 8,667 vertices and 17 materials, modelled in metres at 4.1 m × 3.3 m × 3.7 m.

Can I animate Termite mounds?

It ships as a static mesh. Its 7 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 Termite mounds 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.

Termite mounds

A low-poly savanna termite mound: a fluted earth-red cathedral spire about 3.3 m tall with three fused chimney spires and dark vent holes. It stands in a mound of spilled red and dusty-gold earth, with two young mounds and grass tufts at its foot.

How it was made

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

Termite mounds for the Savanna 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. This is one part of the Savanna kit (Low-poly style, flat-lowpoly direction): Golden grass and big animals. Use ONLY the kit palette, by name: straw gold #d0a225, acacia green #3a883a, earth red #c32222, dusk purple #572e6b, straw gold dark #8f7019, acacia green dark #235223, straw gold light #debd63, acacia green light #5db15d, 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 `dryOrWetSeason` (0–1, default 0.5) for the kit's "Dry or wet season" setting wherever it makes sense on this part, and keep that id.

Note: Size: 3.33 m tall at the defaults (a 3.2 m main spire standing in the apron), with a footprint of about 4.1 × 3.7 m including the young mounds and grass. The apron itself is about 3.7 m across. That is a mid-sized Macrotermes cathedral mound. The bottom rests on y = 0, the origin is at the bottom centre and the front faces +Z. dryOrWetSeason (the kit's 'Dry or wet season') raises the dark damp band at the mound feet from 5 cm to 25 cm and turns the grass tufts from straw gold to acacia green, with more and taller tufts as the season gets wetter. mainHeight (2–5 m) scales the main spire, the chimneys and the apron together. chimneys (0–4) sets the number of fused side spires; each has an open vent crater. youngMounds (0–3) sets the small mounds at the apron rim. Params are baked into the GLB at their defaults and only change the geometry when the scene is rebuilt in the viewer. Only the defaults were rendered and checked. The GLB has 2,889 triangles in 17 meshes and is static, with no animation clip. Every material is named exactly after a kit palette colour; 9 of the 12 kit colours are used (warm white, mid grey and dusk purple are not used). The exporter writes one material per mesh, so some names repeat: recolour by name. Viewer-only staging: exposure is 0.7 rather than 1.05; it is not in the GLB. glb-lint reports 0 errors and 6 warnings, all expected. Duplicate materials and the material count come from the per-part, per-colour meshes. The geometry is non-indexed on purpose, for flat facets. The spires overlap each other and the apron on purpose, because they are fused. The vents are flagged as 'detached', but they are sunk into the main spire's wall. The height warning only compares against a 1 m reference. The verdict line reads UNVERIFIED only because no requirements contract was supplied. plan-check rejects only the hyphenated library part ids, because its regex allows no hyphen; the same plan with the slug de-hyphenated passes. three-check keeps all 7 ids.
