An SDL kit with 3D models? |  |

I would like to incorporate small animated 3D models using openGL and
SDL in my game. Kind of like the ones you see pictured at http://www.battle.net/war3/images/human/units/animations/paladin.gif or http://www.battle.net/war3/images/orc/units/animations/blademaster.gif Is there an SDL kit for 3D models and animation, kind of like SDL_sound or SDL_image do for sound and images? Can someone point me to some good tutorials on what model formats are good for this sort of thing? -Trevor Agnitti -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Hi,
My "how-it's done in the real-world" is not what it could be, but fundamentally, you need a program to create and animate the 3D models. You then export the animation sequences into an appropriate format that you load into your program. I don't think you'd normally dynamically calculate the animation, rather, you'd just pick the appropriate 'frame' from your animation list... I *think* that there are off-the-shelf model loaders... but I've never used one. Blender is the F/OSS 3D package to use, I believe. Anyone else clarify for me? Eddy Trevor Agnitti wrote:

Along the same lines, but with a much bigger industry support, there's also OpenGL ES, which is used on many mobile platforms (Android, for example). Some other of the Khronos APIs have overlap with some of the functionalities of SDL, OpenKODE and EGL, for example. -- http://pphaneuf.livejournal.com/ |
