Description
- Derived from
-
ModelFormat abstract
| Full source code is included in the Tinman 3D SDK download. |
A ModelFormat implementation for:
Open Asset Import Library v5.*
https://github.com/assimp/assimp
The AssimpModelFormat is available if any of the following native libraries is present in the search path of the process:
-
'assimp5.x32': 32-bit dynamic link library -
'assimp5.x64': 64-bit dynamic link library -
'assimp5': dynamic link library -
'assimp.x32': 32-bit dynamic link library -
'assimp.x64': 64-bit dynamic link library -
'assimp': dynamic link library -
'libassimp5': dynamic link library -
'libassimp': dynamic link library
This class assumes that the library interfaces of all minor versions are binary compatible.
To re-build the dynamic libraries that are included in the Tinman 3D SDK, please perform the following steps (you may use other library versions, toolsets or build options, of course):
-
Install CMake 3.30.4 (https://cmake.org).
-
Download Assimp release 5.4.3 (https://github.com/assimp/assimp/tags).
-
Choose generator 'Visual Studio 17 2022', using the 'Win32' and 'x64' platforms.
-
Use default build options of CMake, then apply the following:
ASSIMP_BUILD_ASSIMP_TOOLS = FALSE
ASSIMP_BUILD_TESTS = FALSE
ASSIMP_BUILD_ZLIB = TRUE
ASSIMP_DOUBLE_PRECISION = FALSE
CMAKE_C_FLAGS += ' /DWINVER=0x0601 /D_WIN32_WINNT=0x0601'
CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS += ' /DWINVER=0x0601 /D_WIN32_WINNT=0x0601' -
Build the Assimp binaries (project
assimpwith configurationRelease), then rename and copy each one into its respective SDK folder:
bin/win.any/assimp5.x32.dll
bin/win.any/assimp5.x64.dll
bin/win.x32/assimp5.x32.dll
bin/win.x64/assimp5.x64.dll
The ModelFormat.ReadModel method of this file format returns a IModelReader object that supports the following options:
