Using HGamer3D as a Renderer #9

Open vladfi1 opened 8 years ago

I'd like to programmatically generate a lot of scenes and then render them directly to files (no windows/UI). Initially it looked like the HGamer3D-Ogre-Bindings and HGamer3D-Graphics3D packages might be useful, but I wasn't able to install them and I see that they are deprecated in favor of the HGamer3D package. Can I use HGamer3D to do what I want?

Unfortunately not out of the box. The corresponding functionality (headless, write to file) is not wrapped in Haskell bindings currently.

Since switching to Urho3D this might have another solution, Urho3D enable screenshots (acutally not headless, there is a headless mode but this is without any graphics). I might have a look in the future at the screenshot feature, but not clear, when.
