Cheetah3D to iPhone Header File Converter
Latest version: 2.0.1 (2009/06/04)c3d_to_iphone_h.pl (zipped)
Example project:
C3DConverterTest.tgz (tar-gzipped)This project renders four different shapes generated in Cheetah3D. It’s pretty simple; a lot of the code is from the Xcode’s standard OpenGL ES project template. I’ve added lighting to show that the normals work properly.
Some notable files:
• 4 shapes.jas — the Cheetah3D project
• 4 shapes.h — the header file exported from Cheetah3D. You can run this through the converter yourself if you like.
• 4 shapes_iphone.h — the header file made by my converter
• pure_colors.jpg — A simple texture. Replace this with your own for a different look.
If you use it, please send feedback. Thanks, and enjoy!
