Questions tagged [gltf]
The GL Transmission Format (glTF) is a runtime asset delivery format for GL APIs: WebGL, OpenGL ES, and OpenGL. glTF bridges the gap between 3D content creation tools and modern GL applications by providing an efficient, extensible, interoperable format for the transmission and loading of 3D content.

Mesh shrinks during animation
I extracted vertex data: positions, indices, weights and bone indices, as well as animation data: inverse-bind matrices, sampler inputs and outputs, etc, from SimpleSkin.gltf
I followed the tutorial ...

Issues understanding rotations exported from Blender to gltf
I am trying to write a raytracer in Rust that is able to load a .gltf file and render it. To do this I model a scene in Blende, export it to gltf (y up) and use my renderer to render the scene.
The ...

How to properly use the BRDF from glTF 2.0 specification in path tracing while using metallic/roughness materials?
I've built a renderer which should render glTF materials, as they are defined in their specification. So I should be able to render satisfying (similar to Cycles and Ospray) results just from the base ...

How does one construct a 3D file format from pixels and vertices? [closed]
I have searched around in a lot of places but I have yet to find some place that explains 3D file formats in a way that aligns with the model I have right now. I have a simple problem (I think) but it'...

Double quaternion skinning artifacts
This is technically about PGA motors, but dual quaternions are a subalgebra of PGA so for all given purposes it's the same idea.
I have an animation in gltf, specified as inverse bind pose matrices, ...

How to apply transformation matrices from multiple primitives on a mesh
I'm working on some code to convert a 3d geometry from IFC to gltf/glb. One of the challenges I'm facing with this is that - IFC provides transformations for each primitive separately i.e., if I have ...

Starting from a basic glTF (such as a static sphere or plane) exported from Blender how can I add an animation manipulating its JSON?
I'm working on a glTF, precisely I'm trying to animate a "static" mesh exported from Blender directly acting on its JSON.
In doing so, I'm following the logic used in this tutorial , where a ...

How to apply a linear transformation to gltf data
I am trying to transform the mesh data in a gltf file and then modify the skin and animation data accordingly.
Let's say we want to transform the data using a 4x4 homogeneous matrix. For ...

Why are these 2 buffers joint while extracting glTF information?
I am using tinyGLTF to parse gltf files and then render them in my program.
I am currently during the third example in this page.
In particular I am trying to extract the 2 animation buffers:
My code:...

What's the simplest, open, animation format?
I have an obj parser that handles triangle meshes specifically.
I want to extend it (and the rest of my system) to handle animations as well. However, I don't think I am ready to tackle the glTF ...
