| Slower to load than iqm files, but more widely exportable and supports PBR materials. The binary .glb files generally embed all textures in a single file. FTE supports most of the spec, though does not fully conform in a few edge cases (which will result in warning messages). Additional format extensions may cause the model to fail to load.
