Talk:Oni Model Extractor

Hi. Just wanted to show my interest in this project of yours.

What format(s) are you planning to extract the models/anims to?

I wonder if we could somehow avoid double-work by integrating

OpenGL viewing (and import/export) of models and anims into OUP.

I've already done basic (interactive) OpenGL in C++ (with GLUT),

and Delphi also supports GLUT, so I'm having a little look at it...

(I know you've done OpenGL in C++ too, but I'm not sure you're hot for Delphi ^^)

Interfacing OUP with modules written in Java (via JNI or something) would be optimal.

As far as model/anim extraction goes, I recommend Pierre's OniRip as a reference.

The anims are fully documented here on the wiki, levels and M3GMs soon will be.

oh, there is a talk page - didn't notice that

EdT, i think the exception rises because of the old JVM version you are using (they say this is the case)

try downloading the latest 6th version of J2SE JRE (or JDK)

Apple has not released Java 6 yet. I'll just have to wait...

geyser, hello

that's a promising fact you say that you'll finish the ultimate-extractor in future

i don't have experience of integrating java classes into other source-code (tho i find JNI concept some kind of beautiful)

this project is not something that's going to be a flagship of extracting/viewing

it's my attempt to understand binary data reading/writing, 3d visualization, game programming (a bit)

and currently "u nas MMF, electrode, atomka, yaderka i teormech", so i'll try to suspend it until, say, March comes

---

my mind asks for some change of activity from time to time, so i seem to be still developing from time to time, even tho

holidays are coming

so, today i finished m3gm viewer, and planning in future to extract it to some 3d model format

i don't have much 3d experience

i have heard of the 3ds format, which seem to be very wide-spread, and seem to support all the features required (textures, animations)

maybe you give me some advice:

what 3d-model format can be viewed/modified on both mac and pc (or linux etc) with less difficulties?

it is required to support textures and animations
