Unit Object3dAsVRML

Load a specific animation frame from a given Md3 model.

Parameters

Md3

is the MD3 file to use.

FrameNumber

is the frame number to load, must be < Md3.Count.

WWBasePath

is WWBasePath value to set in resulting VRML nodes.

This is much like LoadAsVRMLSequence, but it only handles MD3 files. Usually you want to use LoadAsVRMLSequence, not this procedure.

This guesses model format basing on ExtractFileExt(filename), then loads model converting it to VRML with appropriate LoadXxxAsVRML functions above in this unit or using ParseVRMLFile if this seems to be a VRML file.

If AllowStdIn and FileName = '-' then it will load a VRML file from StdInStream (using GetCurrentDir as WWWBasePath).

Load various model formats as animation expressed by VRML sequence.

For model formats that cannot express animations (like GEO or Wavefront OBJ) or that express animations in a single VRML file (like VRML > 2.0) this just loads them like LoadAsVRML, adding exactly one item to RootNodes. This guarantees that this function handles at least the same model formats as LoadAsVRML — but actually it may handle more.

And indeed, it currently handles kanim, that is completely unrecognized by LoadAsVRML.

This handles animations in kanim and MD3 formats.

Parameters

RootNodes

Sequence of root nodes will be stored there. Pass here some created and empty instance of TVRMLNodesList.

ATimes

Sequence of time values. Pass here some created and empty instance of TDynSingleArray.

AOptimization

This is a var variable: it will be set only if a file format will actually specify it (for now, this is only for kanim format). For other formats, it will not be modified. So you should set this to "preferred Optimization value for other formats than kanim".
