real easy to use only problem is how easy it is for some voxels to merge into other so you dont fully know if you've left a gap somewhere
Had a standalone license when it wasn't launched on Steam, and it was all good; great voxel modelling software but WITH TERRIBLE BUSINESS PLAN AND PRICING MODEL. In the Steam version *** KEY FEATURES SUCH A BASIC TRANSFORMATION TOOLS AND EXPORT TO .FBX IS LOCKED BEHIND PAYWALL*** so buyers, BEWARE!
Love this interface which is more like a paint program but in 3D. Read the description carefully, I recommend getting the "indie version" even if you're just modding a voxel game like Staxel.
No updates even if you compare it to the same free Magica voxel.
Magica voxel is many times better than this paid analog I don't recommend buying it
Broken, buggy program that has been abandoned by it's devs in favor of creating a new program. I thought for $25 how bad could it be. It's bad. The newest bug I and others have encountered has stopped the ability to export or import vox files.
I'll say that again but louder.
THIS VOXEL EDITOR CAN NO LONGER IMPORT OR EXPORT .VOX FILES.......
Don't buy this crap program when MagicaVoxel is free.
I wish nothing but bad things on these devs for lying and scamming people into buying an old crappy program that has it's features surpassed by free ones.
DON'T BUY THIS PROGRAM THE DEVS ARE SCAMMERS, LIARS AND THIEVES.
Yes it works!
I choosed the indie edition becauseof it's good and helpful export and import options to and from other 3D applications
or game engines.
All that DLC stuff you will find in the indie edition. You have not to buy it additionaly.
I don't rate this software highly; even if we forgive the software for nickel-and-diming you on basic, crucial functionality. It just has poor documentation, which just tells you how to access features through the menus, so it was fun trying to figure out why I couldn't export slices for Sprite Stacking, as it was greyed out.
Once I figured out how to do that, it just wouldn't work! I would choose an export option, export, it said it exported successfully, and yet not a single new file populated the chosen empty folder. As it turned out that option just did not work. And then even when it does 'successfully' export my slices with a different option, it doesn't actually export it correctly. It places pixels where there weren't any, and essentially renders that feature obsolete.
Beyond that, it was clunky and not intuitive (which wouldn't have been a problem if the documentation was worth a damn).
This program lacks crucial functionality. Just as an example, if you save a matrix you can't re-open it AS a matrix, which means that if you didn't finish the matrix in one session you have to start over.
Save your money and do not buy this poor excuse for a voxel modelling program.
Good software, but I'm refunding.
Description claimed that the Basic Edition contained all the features in the Demo. Some were missing.
Read carefully before you buy.
Qubicle Voxel Editor Indie Edition is AWESOME. The Basic Edition, not so much. Indie comes with all the available DLC, while the Basic does not... even though it should.
Also, the learning curve is a bit more difficult than people are saying. It took me 1.8 hrs to get somewhat use to the UI, Camera, Import/Export options, etc. and I have over 5 years experience using 3DS Max, Maya, and Mudbox.
At any rate, I do recommend this software and I can't wait to truly start utilizing it.
*** Update ***
Great on my desktop PC but frequently crashes on my

8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Intel HD Graphics 6000 1536 MB
This software is so incredibly easy to use! With no prior modeling experience I'm pumping out new models every 10 minutes. That's a game changer, excuse the pun.
Yes, some features are behind DLC (the mesh optimization should be free, let's be real) but for 20 dollars you get the basic editor to see if it's right for you. It's not predatory at all, though some people here seem to disagree.
It only took me 10 minutes to learn with their great tutorial. Within 20 minutes I had my first humanoid model. The only thing it's missing is a way to animate the models, but I'm sure something like that is forthcoming. Besides, other programs exist to suit that functionality.
I've used the Steam version to make dungeons, mods, decorations and weapons for Trove. Steam version without DLC will let you do all this. Will recommend this to anyone interested in voxel creations!
Honestly it is a great resource and has a lot of potential when you have all the modules, but unless you are willing to shell out a lot of money I wouldn't suggest upgrading to this, just stick with MagicaVoxel and find ways to work around other things. If you are okay with spending a little more time on certain aspects of voxel creation and don't want to end up spending $50+ then I wouldn't suggest this program by any means.
DO NOT BUY QUBICLE. Even after you "buy" it half of the basic features are missing. You can't set the tolerance for fill, for example, without entering "Demo Mode", which means you can't save or export.
This program is a joke - it lacks minimal features even the free and open source software have, and even basic trivial features cost you extra.
Definitely contacting support and demanding a refund.
As a user of Qubicle 1 Home Edition, I love the upgrade. The optimized export features of the Mesh Module I found to be extremely helpful, my models went from 3,051 polys to 551 polys which is fairly notible. Honestly though, I feel rather bittersweet about the upgrade. While in Qubicle 1 I had gotten used to tools and features which I used every single day, having to pay for the Hue/Saturation and other color features seems like a bit overstep on Minddesks part. Although I can understand the business decision and the fact Steam isnt overly friendly to softwares, I am willing to look past it for the opimization and better performance of the standalone application.
If you're a casual voxel modeler, I would not recommend this program in it's current state. The added price tag for tools I feel are nessessary for modeling and editing effectively is a bit too much for me to swallow and I feel the average consumer will agree, although the more rounded and experienced voxel modelers like myself will enjoy the opimization and the mesh expansion for ease of use and game creation.
I know many people criticized the fact that Qubicle was released kinda "broken down" on Steam and most features are/were available on DLCs. I'm going to give this review, though, not based on these issues.
Having tried Qubicle before (while it was still "Qubicle Constructor"), I found it to be a great app and really wanted to purchase it, but couldn't. Either because I didn't have an international credit card at the time or exchange rate + taxes made it pretty expensive. This "sliced" release on Steam was the perfect opportunity to purchase the app (and I can upgrade it as I want, until I have the "full" version ;D).
The app is great and runs pretty nicely on my PC (Win10 + i7 2600 + 8GB RAM + R7 250) until now, the basic features are good for the price and it's pretty easy to get into it, specially if you have any experience with a raster/vector graphics editor.
After getting used to the Model + Matrix concept, the basic tools and other things, drawing is pretty simple and straight forward, slice mode is also really helpful (and totally required) for some drawings. Exporting and rendering is also a pretty straight forward process (I don't have mesh export yet, but it's ok :P).
Also, the developers, from what I've seen, are willing to listen to the community and make the software adjust, according to users' suggestions, and the license is pretty fair for aspiring/small indie developers, as they can upgrade the software to a "full" commercial licence after they've earned resources to do so. :D
One point, though, that I'm not 100% with is the rendering, the cropping tool for the rendered area could have some improvements (possibility to type width/height, click+drag while keeping proportions), but it's ok. :)
Recommended? Yes, highly! :)
This is my first review, and I decided to write something to be fair with the devs that just made a nice call.
They received alot of bad reviews since release because of keys features were not include in the basic edition of this app. I would also be one of them if the devs wouldn't have change it and since they did, this is why I am writting this.
I am not a professional in voxel art, but this picked my interrest because it seemed easy to use, sharable with other professional application for animation or game making and finally to be able to print on 3D printers.
I already had 5 hours in the first 24 hours that I bought it and I really suprised myself about what I was able to do with no experience and how easy of use this is... I will continu for sure spending more time with this!
PRO:
- Easy to use
- Can use alot of options now with basic edition
- Customizable (key bindings)
- Affortable
- 3D printing
CONS:
- Would like better rendering options... ( "wow" factor )
- More options to that "turntable" ... video maybe? (share with others)
Overall, I do enjoy this software and would recommand it in is current state to any hobbyists like me !
Qubicle is a competent voxel software supporting dividing your models into components, decent building tools and a variety of exports and imports.
Here ends the positive elements.
The pricing is a scam, do not buy this product.
The base product does not have:
- The ability to select a 3d box using the select tool
- The ability to export to a OBJ file for use in, for example, Unity.
- The ability to ROTATE to an arbitrary angle - seriously, you need to pay to unlock ROTATION
The list is extensive, this a small selection of items. If you choose to buy this product, resign yourself to buying *at least* the main product, the Utilities DLC and the Mesh DLC.
Very, Very, Very, Very dissapointed with the "DLC" choices this developer made - they should be ashamed for takling basic features, like selection and rotation tools, and making them a $20 "DLC".
Hopefully they recognize this is not how you should treat customers. I will be seeking a refund, this is a poor way to do business and Minddesk should hold themselves to higher standards.
Treat people fairly, just price the product at ONE FULL PRICE instead of DLC'ing your customers to death.
I bought this on sale to add to my collection of 3D art programs. I thought it would be a fun way to make little mini projects on the side for fun. Lo and behold, more than half the programs functionality is locked behind a pay wall. Not even stuff you can go without too, stuff like building basic primitives, and the EXTRUDE function...
Don't buy this, get Blender for free instead.
Only purchase this if you're okay with buying all the DLC. I purchased the standalone editor and felt like basic features were taken out. The presentation and marketing completely eroded my trust in the developer. I asked for a refund.
The interface is covered in what are essentially advertisements for better versions of the software. That's something people expect in demos and trial products. So its bound to be a surprise when someone sees that outside of those instances (i.e. having paid for proprietary software). The problem isn't necessarily which basic features are missing, the problem is how basic features are missing.
If they think we'll appreciate the locked features and 'demo' mode, they're assuming we aren't familiar with games - particularly of the free-to-play variety. If they think we won't find their advertising invasive and distracting, they're assuming we don't understand design. To think they're marketing this product to game designers is utterly baffling to me.
Before making your purchase take a very close look at all the DLC pages. There are some very basic features that are not available in the standalone product. Some very basic functionality is locked into the DLC. There are even features which available in 2.x trial version which are removed from the standalone editor. Although, even reading all the information here may not be enough to callibrate your expectations.
Here's an example : 'Object Heirarchies' is listed as a feature of the Utility DLC. I had an existing project made in the 2.5 trial version which included multiple Stonehearth bodies loaded into a single .qmo(?) file, and it turns out I was no longer able to edit their bodies one piece at a time, or even properly export them for a mod. I found myself reinstalling a trial version of a product I allready purchased; that's when I came to my senses and requested a refund.
Perhaps the positive reviews should be placed on the DLC's page rather than here.
I thought it would be a clean and usefull program but alot of the options are hidden behind "dlc". Alt-f4 Uninstall it.
The base product is missing some of the most basic features possible.
Gr8 b8 m8, I r8 it 8/8.
Seriously, if you're going to sell a voxel editor, don't remove basic features from the base product. don't waste your time with this; if you want a good voxel editor, go buy the Indie Edition off of the Minddesk website, because it includes all the missing features and costs less than if you were to buy the full package on Steam, with the exclusion of the commercial license.
