Version history

• Installer: if .NET Framework 4.8 is missing it is now downloaded from Microsoft and installed for you, instead of stopping with an error.
• Installer: detects your SOLIDWORKS version and warns before installing if it is older than the tested minimum.
• New page: full system requirements, including which Windows version each SOLIDWORKS release needs.

• Trial: the export counter is now kept on our server as well as on your machine, so support can restore your trial when you ask — for example after a disk replacement.
• Fixed: on some machines the trial counter was stored in only one place and could be lost.
• The privacy page now lists exactly what the add-in sends. Your CAD data never leaves your computer.

• The version shown on this website is now the exact build you download — no more guessing which build you are running.
• Supported SOLIDWORKS range corrected to 2022 and newer (it previously read as 2022 only, which wrongly excluded newer releases).
• The add-in now records which SOLIDWORKS version it runs in, so support can answer faster.
• Fixed: the download link could point at a file that was not on the server.

• Initial public beta.
• Export SOLIDWORKS parts and assemblies to GLB, glTF and a self-contained HTML viewer.
• Batch conversion: point at an input folder and an output folder; every part and assembly underneath is converted.
• Faithful PBR materials: appearance hierarchy, metal detection, sRGB-correct colors.
• True mesh instancing for assemblies (1 mesh, N nodes).
• Center-at-origin and embedded part metadata for web viewers.
• Interface in English, Turkish, German and Japanese — follows your SOLIDWORKS language automatically.

Older builds

The download page always gives you the newest build. Previous builds are kept on our server so that support can put you back on one if a new release ever causes trouble on your machine — write to support@glbexpert.com and we will send you a direct link. We deliberately do not list them for download: an older build is an older build, bugs included.
