Display 3D files on iPad

You must Login before you can answer or comment on any questions.

Hi, I need to display 3D files on an iPad app. These files are created with 3DS (but could be in a different file format if needed). but I don't know if it is possible. I know that there is a OpenGL module on the Market place but I don't know if it can open (complex) 3D object. There is also three.js, but webgl doesn't work on Safari.

Any idea ?

Regards

The OpenGL module in the marketplace says this:

Power your games, virtual reality, visualization and other applications with complex two- or three-dimensional scenes.
Sounds like exactly what you need. Plus it has a 15 day free trial for you to test out. The stars seem aligned in your favor, what more could you ask for (besides it working exactly how you want it to of course!)

  • the problem is that what I want is loading a complex 3D object. I have read the doc and don't see a loading features. I don't want to build myself the objects in my apps, they need to be imported on the app and displayed in 3D.

  • yep, I have this module as a paid user of Ti, but I don't see any function for loading scenes/objects

Nice question. I think titanium does not support this format.

Maybe in the future they can implement something like Assimp library for load 3D models into Titanium, or a module...

Anyone know if it is possible?

Hi i dont think that loading 3D objects is currently supported, but of-course 3D matrix is supported for iOS so, better way is to create your own module for that and go ahead.
