Since most of us are creating final projects that depend on 3d models, I decided to create a thread where we can collect links to places that provide free models.
If you know of some resource that I'm missing, please post it as a comment.
Panda3D/Alice Model Gallery
Format: Egg
License: Public Domain
Url: www.alice.org/pandagallery/
Notes: Models advertised at the course page. Good number of varied models with textures. Includes screen shots. No animations. Some are broken.
Provided WoW Models
Format: Egg
License: Educational Only
Url: www.ru.is/faculty/hannes/classes/ve2009/WOWCreatures.zip
Notes: Some creature/humanoid models from WoW provided in class. Have textures, animations and sounds. All animations are in a single file. Exported by BjarniA.
Kator Legaz 3D Models
Format: Blender
License: Creative Commons
Url: www.katorlegaz.com/3d_models/
Notes: An excellent set of fully textured and rigged models, ready for animations. Includes screen shots. Might be high poly-count.
BlenderModels.org
Format: Blender
License: Unknown
Url: www.blendermodels.org/models/
Notes: A good collection of blender models. Just WebDAV access as the website is down.
Quake 2 Models
Format: Md2
License: Unknown
Url: Featured Models and All Models
Notes: These models have textures and animations. Unfortunately, animations can't be transferred through Chicken into the Panda3D Egg format since they use vertex transformations, not bone animations. Hosted on FilePlanet, so annoying download procedure.
Guide to exporting WoW Models
Format: WoW Model format
License: Educational Only
Url: Static Meshes and With Animations
Description: BjarniA found a way to export WoW models into Panda3D and created a guide. A pretty complicated procedure but fully supports textures and animations in a huge collection of models.
