I made this demo to quickly demonstrate how to use Blade3D, a 3D rendering API I'm working on. It doesn't make full use of the API, but it does give you a starting point if you want to make your own projects using (this version of) Blade3D. Hopefully I can make a slightly more comprehensive introduction to the API with full documentation in the near future, but for anyone willing to look at the underlying code, it should be pretty easy to accomplish whatever you need with just this template.

Something that isn't included in the template is a .obj to .ptm converter, which is provided here. It expects the .obj to include material references (not the .mtl file itself) and for the mesh to be triangulated.

	vp = {},
	f = {},

-- We can use this identifier to determine how to interpret
-- the rest of the line.
local interps = {
	v = function(ln)
		add(obj.v,vec(ln[2],ln[3],ln[4],1))
	end,
	vt = function(ln)

			v.v = indices[1]

wow good job


That's awesome. Is shading dynamic?

@maleficmax It's prebaked as a texture. At the moment Blade3D does not have any dynamic shading, although it is being worked on.

And now it does.
