Is there an editor for this file type? I'm having trouble locating
information on it.

Essentially I want to edit the dimensions of Square.ifs but text
editors I've tried don't like the file format.

Alternatively, would I be better served creating my own
ArticulatedModels from scratch for geometry this simple?

Thanks!

Hi Mark,

I highly recommend OBJ files instead. They are plain text, can be edited in most 3D programs (including Blender) as well as by hand, and load almost as fast as IFS in G3D 9.0. I put a bunch of sample ones online at http://graphics.cs.williams.edu/data and in the G3D distribution.

I use the G3D viewer http://sourceforge.net/projects/g3d/files/beta-g3d-cpp/9.00%20beta%203/G3D-viewer-win.zip/download for editing my OBJ files by hand and seeing the results.
