[request] Ligthwave to support LWO3 file format

Open Micheus opened this issue 1 year ago • 6 comments

This file format was introduced in 2018 and Wings3D has been failing to load these files.

This was reported at Discord.

Something for @elblake who is our best 3d-format fixer :-)

I have the format file available. Attaching here. An user from Discord shared it, because searching I was not finding it. I just ask you @elblake to inform if you are going to work on it or not, because I can do that otherwise :-)

Also, as agreed with @dgud we are going to use the latest version of REBAR3 (https://github.com/erlang/rebar3.git) - tag=3.24.0 (it has some commits related to Erlang 27.1 which we are going to use for the next release). Just pay attention that master branch is not set to the latest one tag (I used git checkout origin/tag/3.24.0).

@Micheus @dgud Sure I'll take a look to add to wpc_lwo.

@Micheus @dgud Sure I'll take a look to add to wpc_lwo.

I think we could have the option to keep the LWO2 file format together, maybe allowing to choose in the export and evaluating the format on import since they may have some incompatibility due the recent changes. What do you think about @dgud ?

@elblake, later, when you have updates for this plugin, we have an user at Discord that can test it. :-)

@Micheus Yep I can add a list box (like in wpc_wrl) to choose between LWO2 and LWO3 export.

I've implemented changes to the importer for LWO3 in a pull request. I'll try to make the exporter at a later time.
