Armory questions

Armory Engine General

I would probably stick to Haxe but just asking out of curiosity, may I know what are the platform specific functions and the generic platform independent functions?

22

Examples of platform specific functions:

  • Linux kernel functions
  • Any function part of Windows API
  • Functions related to hardware such as graphics, input, file system

Example of non-platform specific function:

int addition (int a, int b)
{
  int r;
  r=a+b;
  return r;
}

Furthermore using only C++ it would be very cumbersome to use Armorys math classes such as Vectors, Quats etc.

23

You can change the axes in either the user pref or an addon, but i donā€™t have it on, so i canā€™t remember.

24

@guzzard Oh ok and is Haxe very similar to Java in terms of syntax wise? In terms of development, are there other people working on Armory as well? I wish I could help but I donā€™t know much software development yet :confused:

@sans-iccal Have you changed the axes before? Cause I couldnā€™t find it?

25

@Joe_Smith to learn more about Haxe such as syntax, see haxe.org.

26

@guzzard How many people are working on this project?

27

@Joe_Smith Armory is @lubos project, only he is working on it full-time. Code contribution statistics is available on github, example: https://github.com/armory3d/armory/graphs/contributors

28

@guzzard May I ask do you participate in the project as well?

29

@guzzard I found this article https://blender.stackexchange.com/questi

Does the user suggest to change the z axis to the y axis so that it represents the up axis?

A user in that article suggested to install this addon https://gist.github.com/rraallvv/5959426

Would it replace the z and the y axis?

30

I have done some contributions to the project, itā€™s all there on github if you have a look.

I donā€™t know if that script work, try it and see if it works.

31

But isnā€™t this an addon or something, cause I downloaded as a zip and tried to install it but it did not work, maybe cause I am installing it wrong, can you tell me how to install this addon please?

32

The answer is one google search away. Please start making an effort in searching for and reading information by yourself.

Just in this thread I have asked you to read more on haxe.org about 3-4 times, yet more questions are asked about things which can easily be found on haxe.org with a small effort. Same goes for this. Just search on google and you will have the answer in the first result.
