therobotfox / doublefacetext

Format converter

DoubleFaceText

Convert Text, Images, and NBT into Mesh or into each other

Build

make

Usage

./dft [INPUT] FROM [INPUT TYPE] TO [OUTPUT TYPE] AS [OUTPUT PATH]

INPUT

Path to input file/s. 1-3 are possible

Example

./dft structure.nbt FROM NBT TO MESH AS output.stl

This will convert the NBT voxel structure to a STL-Mesh and save it as "output.stl"

INPUT TYPE

Type of Input

Supported types

• IMG
• NBT
• TEXT

Example

./dft TextA.png TextB.bmp FROM IMG IMG TO MESH AS output.obj

Will interpret Images "TextA.png" and "TextB.bmp" as shadows of a 3D-Object and output a corresponding Wavefront-OBJ Mesh to "output.obj"

OUTPUT TYPE

Output types multiple conversion are allowed at once

Supported types

• SHADOW
• MESH
• NBT

Example

./dft input.nbt FROM NBT TO MESH SHADOW AS output.obj out.jpg

Takes the NBT-Voxel Volume and creates both a Wavefront-OBJ Mesh and the corresponding shadow approximation

OUTPUT

Output path/s

for otput of type Shadow the file name will be suffixed with _front, _side, and _top The above example will therefore create the files "output.obj", "out_front.jpg", "out_side.jpg", and "out_top.jpg"
