convert .obj file into a gd level. and you can rotate it in 3 dimension inside the level.
blender has the option to export as .obj file just in case you don't know.
made with some unauthorized help from https://github.com/patrickbies/spwn-3d lol.
idk how to read a file, so i take a peek to those who was already there before me.
btw you should check out that project, it much cooler than the one you're looking at rn
you can message me on discord Reamuji#9847 for whatever reason
- Put your .obj model file on whatever directory written on your terminal.
pls help, idk how to deal with directory xd
note : on latest SPWN commit it already updated so you could just put it in the same folder as the script - type "spwn build 3DToGD.spwn" into the terminal.
you might need to change the "offset" and "resize" value based on your model size. i might gonna add some sort of auto size detection system in the future
This one is a bit complicated,so im adding a simple rotation built in. but ill try to explain it.
So there's 3 object that i call triaxis, they are the obj that govern how the model would rotate. imagine a transparent ball (diameter = 2 block), and then you stick a smaller ball on top, right and front of it. these 3 ball are the triaxis, and if you rotate the ball, the triaxis would move right ? that movement is what make the illusion of the model rotating in 3D. now you need to emulate that movement in 2D
X triaxis (the one you stick on right) = group 1
Y triaxis (the one you stick on top) = group 2
Z triaxis (the one you stick on front) = group 3
the simplest movement you could do (which already written in the code) is moving X & Z triaxis oscillating left and right (with proper easing) which would make the illusion of the model rotating on the Y axis
self note, don't really bother reading if you're just using it
im not sure how
we only need to increase the distance between each triaxis
if you for expample, give an obj group 1 and 2. and you give each group 50% alpha, both alpha will multiply and your obj will be on 25% opacity
rn, amount of vertices = group used.
i have came up with a couple method.
prob we can use less group if we group together obj with same follow value. since GD round the follow value to 2 decimal anyway
however, it would took much longer to compile
maybe we can made another mini copy of the system and while rotate together with the parent, also rotating on their own with it's own axis
this started to be confusing. so lets end it here xd
