OpenRocket 3D "Photo Studio" application

[bkuker]

I'm starting to work on a feature, or possibly companion app, for OpenRocket where you can take your models and create renderings that are more "pretty" and "fun" than the schematic 3d view available in the standard edit window.

I'm just going to leave this imgur album of pictures I made with it here, and see what you all have to suggest.

Very cool!

The smoke needs fine tuning.

I love the idea bkuker! This sounds like a great add on to Open Rocket and I would definitely use it.

 

[GDJ]

Nice pictures! Altho' I agree the smoke trails need a bit of fine tuning, the subjects and other images are very good.

Nice job!

 

[Zaphod]

Very, very nice. I agree the smoke needs tweaking, particularly with larger volumes, but everything else is brilliant. Would love to try it out.

Do you have some source code available to play with?

How do you apply the graphics/lettering in Open Rocket?

 

[bkuker]

I've re-done the smoke and flames. The album has some examples of the new stuff.

Boris, the code is on my GitHub. I try to push pretty often.

 

[Leo]

I like it!

Pretty cool!

Nice! Although I'd be happy just to get OR's 3D graphics working. On one Mac (with the older Java) decals don't render correctly half the time, and on the other 3D graphics don't work at all (due to a bug in the newer version of Java).

The latest builds with JOGL 2 have resumed working for me.

Can you point me to how to get "the latest builds with JOGL 2"?

I got them from a link on the OpenRocket developer mailing list.

Here it is: https://openrocket.s3.amazonaws.com/OpenRocket-JOGL-2.0.2.jar

A new version of OR should be released soon, which will include the new libraries. Primarily bug fixes, no significant new features. In the meanwhile you can use the version linked above if the regular version doesn't work for you.

Cheers,

On my Mac running OS X 10.8.4, Java version 1.7.0_25, this build still does not display 3D graphics.

DANG! Pretty soon there will be no need to build or launch rockets at all, it will all be done in the vitual world.

Good job man!

 

[Green Jello]

Very cool idea!

bkuker,

It really look cool. I am just a new user of OpenRocket and would greatly like to use your 3D photo studio in to edit my stuff. I just download 13.05 version this week on my MacBook Pro. My question is, doest your photo studio come separately? If so, where can I get it? If you are still working on it, please let me know if it will be on the next release of OpenRocket and when are we expecting it.

Thnx

Great Images! Congrats
