ASBLENDER

=========================================

ASBlender is an Actionscript 3 library to read Blender .blend files.

See http://www.blender.org/development/architecture/blender-file-format/ for an explanation of the .blend format.

The complete .blend is read into simple AS3 Object's which map to the structures defined in the so-called DNA.

Disadvantage of this approach is that you have to "know" how the structures look like.

=> check "printDNA" in USAGE below

USAGE

=========================================

[Embed (source="/assets/crystal_cube.blend", mimeType="application/octet-stream")]

public var BlenderData:Class;

var blend:BlendFile = new BlendFile();

blend.read(new BlenderData());

			

if (blend.scenes.length) {

    // Blender can have multiple scenes, don't know yet how to grab the "active" scene.

	buildScene(blend.scenes[0]);

}

/**

 * Prints out the DNA as contained in the .blend

 */

private function printDNA(blend:BlendFile):void {

	var struct:DNAStruct;

	var field:DNAField;

	

	for each (struct in blend.dna.structs) {

		var type:String = blend.dna.types[ struct.type ];

		

		trace(type);

		

		for each (field in struct.fields) {

			trace(field.type + " " + field.name);

		}

	}

}

private function buildScene(scene:Object):void {

	var obj:Object = scene.base.first;

	

	while (obj) {

		// grab the Blender Object.

		// The Blender Object defines rotation, scale, translation etc.

		var object:Object = obj.object; 

		

		trace("Object name: " + object.id.name + " type: " + object.type + " matrix: " + object.obmat);

		

		//for (var key:String in object) {

		//	trace(key);

		//}

		

		if (object.data) {

			switch (object.type) {

				case 1:	// Mesh

					trace (" -> Mesh: " + object.data.id.name);

					buildMesh(object.data);

				case 10: // Lamp

					trace (" -> Lamp: " + object.data.id.name);

					break;
