[SOLVED] Reading indices of FixedConstraint from an ascii file

[Noura]

Hello,

Is there a way to pass the indices of a “FixedConstraint” from an ascii file through the scene xml file directly?

In case this is possible, could you specify the format to use (csv, txt, the delimitor, etc.)?

I’m expecting something like this
indices= "@indices_file"
instead of
indices= "id_1 id_2 id_3 .. id_n"

Thanks,

Noura

Hi Noura,

A very simple way of doing what you want is to :
– create an obj file (let’s call it “file.obj”) with your ids like:

v id_1
v id_2
..
v id_n

– then, load the above-created obj files with a MeshObjLoader and give it to the FixedConstraint as follows:

<MeshObjLoader name="IDLoader" filename="file.obj" />
...
<FixedConstraint name="myConstraint" indices="@IDLoader.position" />

HTH

It works fine, and makes the scene content more compact.
Thanks Hugo!
