General Anim8or Forum / Re: SMD skeleton to an8 skeleton
« on: November 09, 2014, 03:02:22 pm »
https://www.dropbox.com/s/tcufr4o27p9pze0/smd_package.zip?dl=0 contains a viewer and some decompiled SMDs

Right now I'm just trying to get some source models into anim8or. I already have code for parsing SMD files and for parsing and saving an8 files. the math for converting in between is what's giving me problems.

for SMD x is left, y is forward, z is up.
could you walk me through the math?
I'm still trying to make sense of that VB code

General Anim8or Forum / SMD skeleton to an8 skeleton
« on: November 08, 2014, 02:44:59 pm »
I am writing a program to convert SMD files to an8.
The bones of an smd file are defined by a position and 3 euler angles in radians. I am using the following code to convert to an8


Code: [Select]
smdbone sb=bones.get(x);
Bone b = new Bone();

b.name=sb.name;
b.length=new Vector3f(sb.x,sb.y,sb.z).length();
b.diameter=.2f;

                     Quat4f orientation= new Quat4f();
           Quat4f xrot=new Quat4f();
            Quat4f yrot=new Quat4f();
            Quat4f zrot=new Quat4f();

                      xrot.set(new AxisAngle4f(1,0,0,sb.rotx));
            yrot.set(new AxisAngle4f(0,1,0,sb.roty));
            zrot.set(new AxisAngle4f(0,0,1,sb.rotz));
           
            orientation.set(xrot);
            orientation.mul(yrot);// same as orientation=orientation*yrot
            orientation.mul(zrot);
           
            System.out.println("orientation "+orientation.x+" "+orientation.y+" "+orientation.z+" "+orientation.w);
         
         b.orientation=(Quat4f) orientation.clone();[/code]
the output skeleton looks like a torture victim.
any ideas where i'm going wrong?

Anim8or v0.98 Discussion Forum / question about float keys
« on: October 13, 2014, 09:40:26 pm »
the old anim8or spec describes a float key chunk as:

Code: [Select]
<floatkey> ::= floatkey { <$int> <$float> <$string> }

    <$int> is the frame number for this key.
    <$float> is the value.
    <$string> is a string used to modify the behavior of this knot.
    It is currently ignored.

in one of my files created with the new version of anim8or i see

Code: [Select]
floatkey { 0 23.025 6.9703 -6.9703 "S" }
the first number is still the frame number, and the second is still the value. any ideas what the next 2 are for?

Shame about the tyres. Convert to subdivided? 

I would, but I think that would bring my poly count too high.

just got done texturing this old motorcycle.
Even though it's not shown, it has a skeleton to allow steering and for the wheels to turn

53
that looks correct, thanks!

54
Thanks!
currently, i am trying to figure out how weight painting is recorded.

ex.
Code: [Select]
weights { "mesh01"
                (1 (0 1))(1 (0 1))(1 (0 1))(1 (0 1))(1 (0 1))(1 (0 1))(1 (0 1))
                (1 (0 1))
              }

55
Neat!
Could we get an updated specification doc for the an8 format?

first model:


first good animation:

*jaw drops*
can it display figures or play sequences?
