[viewer] Add animated models support #192

Open DCxDemo opened 11 months ago

DCxDemo commented 11 months ago

Since animation compression is cracked, can add animation to kart models.

DCxDemo commented 11 months ago

Animation support requires complete overhaul of rendering system, as currently every model is split by textures and treated as separate lists. cant really apply vertex buffer changes without order recalculations.

Proper approach is to use fixed vertex buffer + use index buffers per material. this way can animate entire vertex buffer separately and still use same set of texture indices.
