Subject: Re: [Kicad-developers] [PATCH] Implementing X3D model support to 3d-viewer
T hanks for the feedback!
There is a problem with the export function as you said. For example,
Blender vrml/x3d importer seems to have a problem with inlined x3d
files inside vrml files. I think it would still be nice to use x3d
models from other sources than Wings3d just inside the 3d-viewer.
I think that it souldn't be too hard to patch the VRML exporter so that
it can take both, vrml and x3d files, as they are very similar in
structure and I already have all the model information extracted from
x3d file. Writing an x3d export function may also be quite simple if I
base it to existing vrml exporter. I will take a look at it.
