  Updated physics to work with r473 beta and correctly rotating 3D Model with physics.

  If you want to play just with 3d physics, here's an early version:

  This is WIP, port from SDK V1 to SDK V2

  Also added a version here for testing, this is WIP, port from SDK V1 to SDK V2

  While you wait for official 3d physics, you can try my addon.

  It works with 3D Model and Mesh (my addon), 3D Shape, but not on other objects.

  Updated, Mesh now handles c3 bug where render fails, if an object comes from offscreen to onscreen with 3D camera parallel to layout and moving in z axis.

  Now renamed addons to Mesh, MeshLight MeshSceneLight

  Move to itch:

  kindeyegames.itch.io/c3-3d-bundle

  WIP, $0 PWYW (only pay to encourage dev, the value is not there yet, too early.)

  3D Render w/ model w/ animation, mesh enable/disable, mesh point for attachments, builtin shapes, cube and sphere

  3D Lighting (no shadows), spotlight, specular, directional, works in editor

  3D Physics (simple bodies for attached to 3D render, cube, sphere, capsule)

  Try it out, let me know how it goes.

  Coming together:

  - 3D Physics (debug render for physics shapes)

  - 3D Vertex Lighting

  - 3D Model w/ animation

  - SDK V2, thanks to the new mesh API, keeping vertices on GPU for better perf

  Hoping to see the official C3 3D Model version of something this, but more performant, with calcs running on gpu / vertex shader.

  (This is my C3 demo addon using the new 3d mesh API, but calcs on worker threads, not gpu)

  Working on 3D Physics support for 3D Model, please vote here to help complete it:

  Quaternion support request:

  Added render in editor.

  Added spotlights render in editor.

  Added another addon that can control lights in editor and runtime.

  github.com/MikalDev/gltf-plugins/releases/tag/v1.8.1

  Includes example project

  In editor:

  Added specular. Hopefully one day running on GPU with official addon.

  Playing with vertex lighting in my experimental addon, will be interesting to see where they go with the 3D model addon, hoping for some gpu acceleration for skinning and lighting, so they can keep the model data on the gpu, even if animated and lit.

  In my case all done on workers, since we don't have access to vertex shaders in SDK V2.

  Added spotlights. It will be great when the official version starts implementing lighting, etc. on GPU (less load on CPU, in my case using workers)

  Cool.

  More fun experiments. Moved skinning animation to a worker. Added a simple directional light and vertex lighting (also on worker).

  Updated in C3 addon depot.

  It will be great when C3 3D Model adds these workloads to the GPU (skinning and lighting) perf will rock!
