This utility converts different game development assets into a more hardware-oriented format.
Then build with cargo build.
Get an overview of the parameters with ve_asset -h.
For example, ve_asset "./import/" -o ./output compiles all assets in the /import folder and outputs the artifacts to the /output folder.
Currently, this utility supports the following file formats:
| Format | Extension | Functionality | More Info/Settings |
|---|---|---|---|
| Wavefront OBJ | .obj |
Converts to an indexed format | here |
Formats like .obj have to be parsed with different settings, e.g., depending on the software it was made with. These settings can be set in .toml files that are named the same as the corresponding file. This metadata can also be set for a whole folder in a <file_extension>.toml file.
The meta-file for the .obj file type looks like this:
calculate_normals = false
flip_axis = [true, false, false]If the corresponding file is named test.obj, set the metadata either in test.toml or obj.toml for all .obj files in that folder.
