// new release
hi thereee i was working hard to make this,, the new release of my ase tolua v0.2 now suporting uv maping coordinates. and some error fixed still left to fix som errors on the model but its almost done... ase2luav0.2 hope you like it... the file include a space ship model textured on 3dmax, and the same in ase, includes the ase2lua v1.0 too...
the error i have, is somthing whit the polys draws.. some of them seems to bee always on top when they must be in botthom. "this tooll was made in visual basic 6.0 no thing to do whit lua, it just convert the 3d model to the lua format so you can use the array in your lua code."... by the way till now just 1 madel is suported, i mean no multiple models in asingle scene can be transformed, this is easy to fix and i think i will do it for the next release, what i must really fix is that error i menthioned back there.. this is just a intent to do somthing for the comunity to help developers to work whit lua,,,, else is soo har to draw a complex model vertex by vertex, and face by face no offences to friend tactical penguin his tool is powerfull. but cince i know most of people model in advanced 3d porgrams.. like 3dmax or modo, or others,... the point is if your 3d program can make ascii *.ASE. this tool will convert it to lua array.... well thanks.
