# geopy
|
|
|
|
Python tools for manipulating .geo files, and Blender add-on for exporting .geo files.
|
|
|
|
# Blender Add-On
|
|
|
|
The Blender add-on allows you to export .geo files.
|
|
|
|
## Installing the Add-On
|
|
|
|
1. Download geopy-v0.2.1.zip
|
|
2. In Blender open "User Preferences" then select the "Add-ons" tab.
|
|
3. Click the "Install Add-on from File..." button and select the downloaded zip.
|
|
4. Enable the add-on and click the "Save User Preferences" button.
|
|
|
|
## Using the Add-On
|
|
|
|
1. Select the meshes to export in object mode.
|
|
2. From the menu select File->Export->"City of Heroes (Feet) (.geo)" (or "City of Heroes (Meters) (.geo)" if your meshes have been scaled in meters).
|
|
3. Browse to the file you want to create and click "Export GEO".
|
|
|
|
## Notes
|
|
|
|
Models are exported with the name of the mesh they come from, so having the meshes named correctly is recommended.
|
|
|
|
# Tools
|
|
|
|
These command line tools allow inspection and modification of .geo files.
|
|
|
|
## geo.py
|
|
Contains the Geo class, which represents the contents of .geo files. Can be run to test the reading and writing functionality.
|
|
|
|
geo.py <infile.geo> [<outfile.geo>]
|
|
|
|
If only an input .geo file is specified, it will read the input and dump the contents of the .geo to the console.
|
|
|
|
If an output .geo file is specified, it will read the input .geo file, and write the contents to the output as a new .geo file.
|
|
|
|
## stl_dump.py
|
|
Dumps the meshes of a .geo file to .stl files. Used for testing and validation, as .stl isn't useful for games.
|
|
|
|
stl_dump.py <file.geo>
|
|
|
|
Dumps all the meshes contained in <file.geo> to <geo_name>/<model_name.stl>. <geo_name> and <model_name> are read from the .geo.
|
|
|
|
## geo_edit.py
|
|
A command line tool for modifying a .geo file
|
|
|
|
geo_edit.py <infile.geo> <outfile.geo> <operation> [<operation options> ...]
|
|
|
|
Operation | Description
|
|
--------------------------- | ---------------------------
|
|
del_model <reg_ex> | Deletes all models whose name contains the regular expression <reg_ex>.
|
|
geo_name <name> | Change the .geo's name to <name>.
|
|
swap_left_right <reg_ex> | Swap left and right bones for all models matching <reg_ex>.
|
|
rename_model <old> <new> | Rename a model from <old> to <new>.
|
|
rename_texture <old> <new> | Rename a texture from <old> to <new>.
|
|
rescale_all <scale> | Rescale all vertices in all models by multiplying them all by <scale> .
|
|
set_model_scale <model> <x> <y> <z> | Set the scale properties of the given model (not the same as rescaling).
|
|
Multiple operations can be specified and performed in the same run.
|
|
|
|
Unless noted otherwise, model names and regular expressions are case sensitive.
|
|
|
|
## geo_list.py
|
|
|
|
A command line tool for list the model name inside of 1 or more .geo files.
|
|
|
|
geo_list.py [<output_options>] <file.geo> [<file.geo> ...]
|
|
|
|
The output format is:
|
|
<geo_name> : <model_name>
|
|
|
|
<output_options> adds additional items that can be outputted:
|
|
-t Prints the triangle count of the model. Added output format: ": <tri_count>"
|
|
-s Prints the scale of the model. Added output format: ": <sacle_x>, <sacle_y>, <sacle_z>"
|
|
|
|
## texture.py
|
|
Contains the Texture class, which represents .texture files. Can be run to test the reading and writing functionality.
|
|
|
|
Note: Requires Wand to be installed: http://wand-py.org/
|
|
|
|
texture.py <infile.texture> [<outfile.texture>]
|
|
|
|
If only an input .texture is specified, it will read the input file and dump the contents to the console.
|
|
|
|
If an output .texture is specified, it will read the input.texture file, and write the contents to the output .texture file.
|
|
|
|
## texture_extract.py
|
|
A command line tool for extracting an image from a .texture file.
|
|
|
|
Note: Requires Wand to be installed: http://wand-py.org/
|
|
|
|
texture_extract.py <infile.texture> [<outfile>]
|
|
|
|
Reads the file <infile.texture> and writes the contained image to an output file.
|
|
|
|
If <outfile> is specified it will write to this file. If no <outfile> is specified it will use the file name contained inside the .texture file, recreating the directory structure.
|
|
|
|
## dds2tex.py
|
|
A command line tool for converting a .dds file into a .texture .
|
|
|
|
Note: Requires Wand to be installed: http://wand-py.org/
|
|
|
|
texture_extract.py <infile.dds> [<outfile.texture> [<texture_filename>]]
|
|
|
|
<infile.dds> is the input file.
|
|
|
|
<outfile.texture> is the output file. If not specified it will use the same file name as the input except with a .texture extension. If <outfile.texture> is a directory it will use <texture_filename> with a .texture extension as the file name and directory, but placed under the directory <outfile.texture> .
|
|
|
|
<texture_filename> the filename to store inside the .texture file. If this not specified, it defaults to <infile.dds> . If <infile.dds> contains "texture_library" it will discard everything before "texture_library" use the remainder.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Known Issues
|
|
- Not all structures are handled (reflection quads)
|
|
- Not all structures are regenerated when writing a .geo file. (Reductions)
|
|
- Blender import of .geo files is currently a stub.
