Convert the blender files into panda3D #26

Closed benlapETS closed 3 years ago

benlapETS commented 3 years ago

During this issue we will convert the .blend files of our blender 3D work to .bam files in order to make it usable with panda3d. The goal of this issue is also a proof of concept which we hope will demonstrate the validity of our methodology for developing simple and 3D enabled video games.

The panda3D website proposes a tool to convert from blender: blend2bam. This is what we will try.

benlapETS commented 3 years ago

Here is a significant problem encountered when converting with blend2bam. We went from this:

game_init

... to that:

image

which is disastrous and means that we lost our procedural texture, our custom UV editing, our lighting setup and even the simple custom red material shading.

This also means that we lost everything that made our game realistic and we will have to redo all the work done in panda3d in order to have the same results that we thought we would have. I doubt that panda3d is the right tool to use to develop our game.
