Hi All:
At last, after some 8 months, I'm nearly finished with my
lightmap-baking demo/tutorial. The technique I developed works great
within the limitations of lightmapping, but I've a problem deciding
which scripting language to use for a little external tool that is
necessary to write some files.
I tried at first to use only POV-Ray for that, but there was a little
obstacle which forced me to use some external programming: I need to
read the geometry file exported by Poseray, to find the objects and
materials names... so I cannot use POV-Ray file I/O.
As I'm used to write and read text files with PHP, I just wrote a
little script for use with PHP_CLI from the command line. It works
great for me, but perhaps it isn't a great choice for multiplatform
distribution... The problem is I cannot find anything better, as I will
prefer to distribute just a configurable text file.
Any recommendations? (or perhaps I overlooked a way to do it only with
POV-Ray?)
