aw thanx guys from now on, I'm only looking in the foreward direction. not no longer will I look back at my competition >:3 there's only 1 direction to go now. *face of wisdom* if I don't have it supported upon release, there's always the option to build a plugin (you can garuntee I'll be sure to make plugin building as simple as possible) >:3

That's the spirit! Even if your computer is down, I do hope you'll have it back soon! I'm really exited about using my own models in Brawl, like Gamecube rips turned into DAEs as well as Dissidia FF models, also as DAEs (I have my color packs of Terra, both human and Esper, ready to become MDL0s) The thing is that I can't see anything in the current BrawlBox, so I hope that once turned into MDL0s they would be perfectly visible

uugh... ripping is only what I do when I rip games to my HDD...

I try to stay away from DAE as it's not a very trustworthy format among 3D editors...
(different editors have a different way of reading the DAE's data)

heh...
best option (for me) was to dev my own format...

for you guys...
try to stick with BLEND or 3DS
(granted the blender team has little documentation on their format)

I'd have to say BLEND is even more trustworthy than 3DS due to 3DS's complex aglorithms for it's format.

3DS files basically store equations for defining objects.
BLEND files actually store model data in a "DNA" structure.

WOOT!!!
my first GUI test with OGL >:3


click on the spoiler for the code:

import sys
sys.path.append('data')
# helloteapot.py

from OpenGL.GL import *
from OpenGL.GLU import *
from OpenGL.GLUT import *

def draw():
    glutWireTeapot(0.5)
    glFlush()

glutInit(sys.argv)
glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_SINGLE | GLUT_RGB)
glutCreateWindow("My First OGL Program")
glutDisplayFunc(draw)
glutMainLoop()

EDIT:
this is better:


and here's the code:

import sys
sys.path.append('data')
# helloteapot.py

from OpenGL.GL import *
from OpenGL.GLU import *
from OpenGL.GLUT import *

def draw():
    glClear(GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT)
    glutWireTeapot(0.5)
    glFlush()

glutInit(sys.argv)
glutInitDisplayMode(GLUT_SINGLE | GLUT_RGB)

glutCreateWindow("My First OGL Program")
glutInitWindowSize(250,250)
glutInitWindowPosition(100,100)

glutDisplayFunc(draw)
glutMainLoop()

Faster render time than TKinter?

Faster render time than TKinter?

it loaded almost instantly >:3
but that's only the internal function...

I'm just playing around, getting to know OpenGL

IMO, you prbly should too...
(integrate PyOpenGL into your program so people won't have to DL it)
^just like I did ^_^

alot of tricks for getting to know OGL are in this PDF:

Wow! What a nice program! Is the OGL the model converter you're currently making?

lol
if I understand you correctly XDD

the OGL you're seeing in use is the OGL integrated into my converter...
what you're seeing are just simple side programs used for nothing more than testing :3

now you see why I needed a complete code drop.
OpenGL is by far much better than Tkinter

I don't know it's renderring speed yet...
but I do know PyOGL 3x is far slower than PyOGL 2x
although I can't seem to find a 2x version to integrate >_>
but this can be delt with until I learn Python 3x

I'm expecting at least a 20FPS output for 1 model >_>

hey 404
I hope you're ready because I have something for you (:<

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=MQQTZNLO
the program is a small previewer that rotates a sphere
(that's exactly what's to show off... "Rotation")

btw, OGL is included in the DL
(you don't have to DL it)

you can play around with the functions and see what you can get.

the framerate I'm getting is just as fast as the key repeat rate of the Kbd
(much faster than I was expecting for python)

TIP: you can take the OGL from the DL and integrate it in your program.
I put mine in UMC/data/ so I have to put this code before referencing it:

import sys
sys.path.append('data')
#then reference:
from OpenGL import *
from OpenGL.GLUT import *

have fun

Thanks! It works on my laptop, but not on my PC, and I've noticed the files were .py files. Is there something my laptop have than my PC doesn't?

well i sure hope ur program gets better and better mate!

[DarkPikachu]

well i sure hope ur program gets better and better mate!

lol thanx
I've just described my program to the blender developers...
(since blender uses OGL entirely) >_>

hopefully I can get some help on it...
(since I'm a class A++ OGL noob) XDD

lmao ya... better hope that they help u.. but more than likely, most developers dont help ppl

[DarkPikachu]

here's a few ideas for my converter in under 5 minutes:

step1:


step2:


that's how it will basically work...

not bad, not bad
