Add ability to import 3D models

Open jdan opened this issue 10 years ago • 7 comments

It would be very cool to be able to import an existing 3D model, or even a list of coordinates.

Look into the *.obj format. It's quite easy to work with and is often in pure ASCII.

Maybe this feature should be provided as a plugin (hosted in another repository).

screenshot from 2014-04-29 19 17 58 Got a *.obj imported but for the textures we need to create something for texture mapping #6. To get groups in *.obj files working we need depth sorting #9. So for now only non grouped *.obj files will work.

Nice work! Is this on your fork? Would love to see if it works with @Mysterix's changes so far.

I pushed it to my fork c8fcbc2a47b33700600ac733ee7c7babbee42b4d , it needs much improvements parsing the groups, and maybe sometime .dea support

I'd hold off on *.dea. I've seen whole libraries just to load them, let alone a fairly compact JS library.

I agree with you, if someone wants to use *.dea they can convert it to *.obj.
