#4 Import 3D objects as blocks in a game

Open
opened 4 years ago by exmods-official · 1 comments

NG's Pixi currently has support for converting 2D objects (pictures) into Gamecraft blocks, among other things.

Unfortunately, 3D objects are a bigger challenge to import and convert into blocks. But it's a bigger job for a bigger reward, since 3D objects have a whole extra dimension of potential compared to flat images! Even Mark has expressed interest in having this added.

The idea, succinctly: Import a standard 3D object file format, create and use an algorithm to convert this to the various block shapes and colours in Gamecraft.

Bonus points for adding this to Pixi, since it's all about importing anything into Gamecraft games.
