[Frenchy Pilou]

...in your favorit 3D prog !
"Geometric Description Language"
You need
:b3: A Script Editor (http://www.webscape.com/GDL/3nf/GDLs3NF.html) Free ! For scripting your Object
:b3: A GDL web Control plug in (http://www.graphisoft.com/products/object_technology/downloads/)Free ! For viewing an object in rotation

Thank you Pilou!

I have been searching for a new way to show my models :)

This is a verry good way of doing things :)

Have a good day :)

I am going to try learning how to embed the GDL into a webpage. This looks like a nice way to show models :)


Here is a Semi- Technical Tutorial on how to Embed the GDL into your HTML code :):tu:

...marvelous free "Flash" book about GDL (http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/sbe/cookbook/CB4_Web/index.html) in english and multi-language :cool:
Have fun scripting!

Little tut!
You need
A free Script Editor GDL (http://www.webscape.com/GDL/3nf/GDLs3NF.html)
A free Viewer GDL (http://www.graphisoft.com/products/object_technology/downloads/) for see in any position your object "real time" in the Editor above
A free GDL Explorer Object (http://www.graphisoft.com/products/object_technology/downloads/) for see all GDl objects on the planet
and save it in some formats like for example (obj) useful isn't it? :)
(if you have any problem with a 3D model try Wings3D (http://www.wings3d.com)) : a very cool free modeler but also a "doctor" for sick models :cool:

Language GDL is like "basic" even more simple ! Tut very clear in french (http://www.fc-cadlink.com/c-didactgdl.php) ;)


Exemple (put it on the "3D Script" menu of the Scritp Editor) and press the "Rubik cub" icone, that all!



for i = 1 to 20
addx i*2
CYLIND i*6, i*4
next i


It's not very complex :) (that was my first try)
Advantage, you can make any parametrics 3D models without any progs !!!
And at the end you import it in any prog!
Have fun scripting :D

Nice Pictures :)

The Scripting is almost identicle to BASIC. This is going to be fun :):tu:

Thank you for this thread Frenchy Pilou :cool:

...quasi basic language, so very easy to use for our poor sick heads :cool:
In fact with this you can make the same of some functions inside the Cameyo Zplace Script in Zbrush :)
Maybe with a little effort more :rolleyes:
Have funny scripting!
