files don’t exist in repository

rubydesign commented 6 years ago

Hi, while integrating the build into rails assets i stumbled across the fact that those files don't actually exist. Since this is so small, i hope it's ok without the topic branch. Off course i can make one if that is necessary.

Other than that, i wanted to say if you need help, i am available. After a full week search for 3d library i found this, and it is just the best (yes, better than three and babylon) . Great docs, and examples. If there is any way i can help, just say. Obviously being a 3d (and js) newbie, that offer has limited scope, but full enthusiasm. But i've been coding for 25 years, and loved the developer intro. Such clear (and documented!) architecture.

Thanks! That's encouraging feedback. Note though that Bablyon and THREE are general purpose engines, while xeogl is geared specifically for CAD/BIM/Archviz, so has only a small fraction of the features of Babylon and THREE.

Yes do send any PRs for anything you feel is important, thanks.

BTW I'm actually finishing a partial rewrite - I'm going to do something like this:

  1. create a v0.6 branch off master, which will be the "pre-rewrite" version
  2. create a v0.7 branch and put the rewrite in there
  3. make v0.7 the master branch

Then users can patch v0.6 if needed, while main development continues in master.

Here's what will change in the rewrite: https://github.com/xeolabs/xeogl/wiki/Updates-in-xeogl-V0.7

Don't circulate that yet though - I'm still QAing it.

cheers!

Thanks for the read, and don't worry, I don't circulate. that all sounds good to me. Simpler is good, and performance surely too. If many entities are a goal, I'm sure you have looked at übers luma.gl. They have a nice demo with 65k entities.

But I wanted to ask, the bim viewer is just a focus, yes? Not exclusive? I mean I would like to help with the api (not soo interested in internals yet),so you do want a decent Api?
