Assess feasibility of 3D model incorporation #17

Closed foxtrotzulu94 closed 9 years ago

foxtrotzulu94 commented 9 years ago

Incorporate and test the Rajawali 3D Framework for rendering cel-shaded, non-textured .obj models. In the process, benchmark both CPU and Memory usage as well as final APK Size with the added framework. Assess also the use of Google's APK Asset package hosting (or any similar solution) as a means to provide users with the models without having to store them locally.

The current application size and memory usage means that if we were to implement this feature, we would require a separate application developed which can be called within ours. This would give a unique process to such application and avoid bloating the Pokedex itself.

Therefore, I'll mark this issue as "Won't Do" for now and close it. However, it is feasible to develop the alternative and it should be reconsidered when the full Pokedex release is done.
