Development:Scripts & Tools
Internal tools
Tools developed for Vega Strike
- Mesher utility: Converts from/to Wavefront .obj+.mtl, xmesh(es), and BFXM file formats.
- ucsv.py: (Python) Conversion script for turning .xunit files into rows in units.csv format
- 3ds2xml: (Perl) script for converting .3ds files into .xmesh format. Doesn't appear to do axis translation properly, known to be somewhat flaky.
- [WIP] obj2obj converter (Perl, commandline) - Converts obj files to cockpit files. or extracts tag-data from the models. (At least that's what is planned, Testing under Win32/Linux. Pontiac)
- Configuration Parser (file: objconv/configparser.py in vegastrike CVS, Python) - Goes through the source tree and produces a config file (pygrap.config at present) containing every variable *used* in game, every possible command to bind to keys, and every colour definition that can be specified.
- [WIP] OBJ to Vega Strike cockpit converter (obj2vs_cockpit_obj, Perl)
