• Quickly setting up a 3D scene?

  If you use something like libassimp https://github.com/assimp/assimp it will allow you to import these and access the data to generate your Vertex Array Objects then render to a frame buffer object.

• Scene organization
  1 project | /r/GraphicsProgramming | 30 Jun 2023

  If you just want to load other data in a relatively simple fashion, assimp https://www.assimp.org supports loading a bunch of different formats and is pretty easy to use.

• Noob question: Between WebGL, OpenGL ES and emscripten, what is the recommended usage and relationship between them for creating an interactive browser based graphics app?
  3 projects | /r/GraphicsProgramming | 22 May 2023

  The emscripten interface for the assimp library. It runs entirely in the browser, and allows you to import 40+ 3D file formats and access the result in JSON or glTF format. This is not a full port of assimp, but an easy to use interface to access it's functionality.

• Issues with Assimp Loader and Bones
  1 project | /r/opengl | 25 Mar 2023

  I ran into what sounds like a similar problem a few months ago. It turns out this was an assimp bug: https://github.com/assimp/assimp/issues/1974

• What is the best way to read .3DS files?
  1 project | /r/Houdini | 13 Feb 2023

  You could give assimp a go (there is a python version) i've used it for 3DS before then you can export to something else. https://github.com/assimp/assimp/blob/master/port/PyAssimp/README.md

• How can I retrieve normal scale and occlusion strength properties from GLTF 2.0 PBR materials using Assimp?
  1 project | /r/gameenginedevs | 1 Jan 2023

  I have checked the source code for GLTF for this and it is not handled by Assimp. I created an issue as in their Github.

• A TRIANGLE!!! with OpenGL! Awesome right? 😅😜
  1 project | /r/IndieDev | 3 Nov 2022

• Using Assimp library for commercial game development

  Have you read the license? It's quite permissive. https://github.com/assimp/assimp/blob/master/LICENSE

• i wanna turn 3d models into a sprite and a normal map (the same way dead cells does it) Any library recommendations that i can use for this? Simpler and easier to learn the llibrarry the better as this is the only thing i am going to do with it.
  1 project | /r/cpp_questions | 8 Oct 2022

  There is probably some library more specific to your use case, but you can use assimp to load 3d models in C++.
