Unlike traditional real-time rendering engines, RendASCII renders frames as printable strings using ASCII characters for pixels. RendASCII is open source under the MIT license.\n\n[Project Homepage](https://github.com/Foxbud/rendascii)\n\n[Project Documentation](https://github.com/Foxbud/rendascii/wiki)\n\nPlease direct questions to **garrett@fairburn.dev**.\n\n## Features\n\n* No external dependencies; uses just the Python standard library.\n* Multiprocess based rendering.\n* Optional Cython based accelerator extension modules.\n* Load and render 3D models from Wavefront object and material files (\\*.obj and \\*.mtl, respectively).\n* Load and render 2D sprites from ASCII based Portable PixMap files (\\*.ppm).\n* Render the same or different scene(s) using multiple virtual cameras.\n* ASCII overlays for displaying fixed graphics and/or information.\n* Map sprite and material colors to ASCII characters using JSON colormaps.\n* Transform models, sprites, and virtual cameras using arbitrary homogeneous transformation matrices.\n* Utility for easily constructing complex transformation matrices with scaling, translations, and rotations.\n* Utility for managing frame-rate and calculating delta time.\n\n## Installation\n\n### Using Pip\n\n`# pip3 install rendascii` - download and install pure Python distribution.\n\n`# pip3 install --no-binary rendascii rendascii` - download source distribution, build accelerator extension modules, and install resulting binary distribution.\n\n### Manual\n\n`$ git clone https://github.com/Foxbud/rendascii.git` - clone repository source.\n\n`$ cd rendascii` - change working directory to cloned source.\n\n`# python3 -m setup install` - build accelerator extension modules and install resulting binary distribution.\n\n`# PURE_PY_DIST=true python3 -m setup install` - build and install pure Python distribution.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ffoxbud%2Frendascii","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Ffoxbud%2Frendascii","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ffoxbud%2Frendascii/lists"}
