'''{{m3d|4}}''' (MS3D) is a shareware low-polygon 3D modeling program created by Mete Ciragan. It was heavily used by aspiring modelers/animators when creating models for {{hl|4}}, {{hl2|4}} and etc.
 
== History ==
MilkShape 3D was created by chUmbaLum sOft, a small software company in Zurich, Switzerland, which was established in the autumn of 1996. chUmbaLum sOft develops 3D tools for games and other applications. MilkShape 3D was originally created as a low poly modelling program by Mete Ciragan for the {{goldsrc|4}}. Over time many features were added as were many export formats. Though not as advanced as other leading 3D modelling programs, it remains a simple and cost-effective tool for creating 3D models.
 
== Features ==
* All basic operations like select, move, rotate, scale, extrude, turn edge, subdivide, among many others. MilkShape 3D also allows low-level editing with the vertex and face tool. Standard and extended primitives such as spheres, boxes, and cylinders are available.
* Can export to over 70 file formats.
* Supporting own file-format, Milkshape 3D is able to export to morph target animation like the ones in the Quake model formats or to export to skeletal animations like Half-Life, and etc. The number of file types that the program can support features all major 3D game engines, including [[Source]], [[id Tech]]. It has become known as a useful converter from one format to another.
