3D Model testing for using in Windows Mixed Reality Home

If your are creating a 3D App Launcher to use inside the in the Cliff House, you have an app to quickly verify that it works:

The app is part of the Universal Windows Platform (UWP) app samples on github: https://github.com/Microsoft/Windows-universal-samples/tree/master/Samples/MixedRealityModel

To use it, you will have to build it and deploy it using Visual Studio by right clicking on the project in the SOLUTION EXPLORER Window and then DEPLOY:

When deployed, go to the Cliff House, launch the MixedRealityModel app from the start menu and pick the .GLB you want to test. If the file is not compatible (for example because it has more than 10K triangles), you will see a red cross ❌ instead of the 3D App Laucher. If the file is ok:

You have it 🎁!
