v3d-core

WebGL-based humanoid model rendering engine.

Objectives

This project aims to be an easy-to-use library for rendering 3D and pseudo-2D humanoid models. We choose WebGL because of its portability across platforms, as well as the broad support from JavaScript community.

Features

• Contains one simple API for interacting with scene and models
• Supports .vrm file loading, including:
  • Unity Humanoid bone mapping
  • BlendShape morphing
  • Secondary Animation
  • MToonMaterial

Usage

Install from NPM

npm install v3d-core

In browser

Some older browsers may not be supported.

Please see examples/browser for an example.

A more complicated example can be found in examples/classroom.

On Babylon.js Playground

Currently, this is not possible since we use a modified Babylon.js fork.

For node.js and webpack

All modules support ES6 imports.

Please see index-test.ts for an example.
