The Ultimate Tool for 3D Miniature Supports

Engineered by miniature support professionals, Runebrace delivers an uncompromising workflow with powerful, intuitive features for the perfect print.

Runebrace Software Interface

Key Features

Designed by professionals who have been creating supports for Artisan Guild miniatures for 76 releases. Runebrace integrates all the essential features born from direct, continuous field experience for a workflow without compromise.

Model Preparation & Analysis

Intelligent Auto-Orientation

Find the perfect print angle with a single click. Runebrace's algorithm analyzes your model to find the optimal orientation that minimizes islands and reduces the need for heavy supports.

Advanced Hollowing & Voxel Inspection

Hollow your models with a system built on a powerful voxel engine. Runebrace offers more than just hollowing; it provides an advanced Voxel Editor for in-depth analysis. Navigate freely inside your hollowed models to inspect every internal detail, allowing you to troubleshoot potential issues related to complex geometries before you ever press print.

Advanced Scaling System

Scale your models with unparalleled control. After scaling the main model, the tips and sections of your supports retain their original, effective size. You can then apply non-destructive, percentage-based scaling to each support section (tip, body, base) independently.

High-Speed Island Detection

Our detection engine leverages modern, multi-core CPUs to rapidly identify potential unsupported areas. This speed boosts your productivity, allowing you to quickly find and fix tiny mesh imperfections that often generate unnecessary islands. By cleaning up these areas—especially those hidden from view—you can significantly save resin and reduce the number of supports needed for a successful print.

Interactive Slice Preview & In-Place Editing

Go beyond simple viewing. Inspect your model layer by layer and, crucially, add or edit supports directly from within the slice preview, even on hard-to-reach internal surfaces.

Mesh Smoothing Brush

Fine-tune your model's surface before printing. Use the integrated smoothing brush to gently soften mesh artifacts or blend details without leaving the application.

Advanced Support System

Flat & Smooth Normal-Based Placement

Gain ultimate control over where your supports are placed. Runebrace allows you to switch between placing supports based on the raw, flat normals of the mesh triangles or the visually smooth, interpolated normals. This ensures perfect, intentional placement on both hard-surface geometric details and complex organic curves.

Smart Bracing System

Create rock-solid support structures with a single click. Our smart bracing algorithm intelligently adds only logically necessary reinforcements to prevent tangles and waste, maximizing stability without cluttering your model.

Advanced Support Editing & Dynamic Branching

Effortlessly place supports with intelligent assistance, then modify them with simple clicks on tips, attachment points, or support columns. Quickly reorganize your support network with just a few clicks to find better connections and reduce complexity, especially in dense areas. The intuitive workflow makes it easy to optimize support placement and untangle dense clusters of small supports.

Precision Pathfinding for Supports

Reach any point on your model. Runebrace uses a precise pathfinding algorithm that allows supports to navigate through complex geometries, ensuring even the most difficult areas are perfectly supported.

Flexible Support Editing

Take direct control of your supports. Intuitively click and drag support tips and bases to fine-tune their placement and connection points on the model and the build plate.

Smart Selection Tools

Work faster with powerful selection tools. Use box selection or instantly select all supports that match a specific type, allowing for efficient bulk edits.
