Shape
From EncyclopAtys
- shape
- .shape is a 3D object data file structure which is specific to Ryzom. It includes vortex coordinates, UV map as well as references to the textures.
There are two kinds of entities in Ryzom:
- − The monoshape entities (MOBS, NPCs, items) : defined by a single shape (roughly, it may be sometimes more complex ). They can be spawned with a single command.
- − R2 NPCs which are like caracters : one race shape and one shape per equipment part. The character is spawned first, then it's equipment is applied.
Converting to .shape
- An plug-in has been developed for 3DS max by Nevrax (NeL); see: Export from 3DSMax.
- An application to convert .obj files to .shape has been developped by Kaetemi
