Newo Model Viewer is a tool specifically designed for the game "Newo Shooter Wii" that allows users to view and test models created for the game. It is a simple program that is able to open and display Wavefront OBJ files. The application is heavily based on the guide "Intro à la 3D sur Wii" by EvilTroopa, which provides an introduction to 3D on the Wii.
The viewer is particularly useful for game developers, as it allows them to view and test their models in a simple and straightforward way. It is a great tool for previewing the models and ensuring they are optimized for the game before release.

Requirements for loading files
The "Newo Model Viewer" is designed to only load and display .obj files that have normals and a single group. The files must also be triangulated as quads will not work.
In order to load a texture, it must have the same name as the obj file, and must be in PNG32 format. Each model can only have one group and one texture, with a maximum texture resolution of 1024x1024 and must be a multiple of 4.
The Newo Shooter Wii models are centered at 0 with a maximum point of 1 and a minimum point of -1 on all axes. There is a red box that indicates the expected minimum and maximum size.
The viewer reads the "model/" directory through the "Load Model" menu, and the "/apps/newoshooter/model/" directory through the "Load Model 2" menu. However, Hot swapping SD cards or USB sticks is not supported. Files are only loaded at the start of the application from the device the application is running on.
If the above conditions are not met, the application may crash or hang.
Collision Boxes
The collision boxes are a simple AABB. They are at the center of each triangle face. I explain how I use them for collision detection in this blog post; Simple AABB collision detection in NewoShooter.
Controller
All controls work for first player only.
