procedural_city_generation.visualization package¶
Submodules¶
procedural_city_generation.visualization.blenderize module¶
-
procedural_city_generation.visualization.blenderize.createmesh(verts, faces, texture)¶ Creates a Blender mesh from a list of vertices and faces while assigning a texture object
- verts : iterable<iterable<float(shape(3, ))>>
- Iterable of 3D-Coordinates of vertices
- faces : iterable<iterable<int>>
- Iterable of Iterables of the indices of the verts which make up each face
texture : Blender texture object
-
procedural_city_generation.visualization.blenderize.createobject(verts, faces, texname, texscale, shrinkwrap)¶ Creates a Blender object for each mesh. Each mesh is (after the building_generation submodule) a list of all vertices and faces which share the same texture (in order to make blender start up in reasonable time). Shrinkwrapped textures will be blender-shrinkwrapped (projected on to) the surface mesh.
- verts : iterable<iterable<float(shape(3, ))>>
- Iterable of 3D-Coordinates of vertices
- faces : iterable<iterable<int>>
- Iterable of Iterables of the indices of the verts which make up each face
- texturename : String
- Must be identical with the name of the image in /visualization/Textures
- shrinkwrap: boolean
- If true, then this mesh will be triangulated and then shrinkwrapped. It makes sense to have this attribute set as true for Roads and Floortypes.
-
procedural_city_generation.visualization.blenderize.createtexture(name, scale, texturetype='REPEAT')¶ Creates a Blender Texture Object. Only Tested with Cycles Engine.
- name : String
- Name of this Texture
- scale : int
- How many times this Texture is to be scaled down. This Parameter still needs work. In the future, when 0 is passed, it is supposed to scale a Texture exactly on each polygon, meant to be useful e.g. when creating windows.
- texturetype : String (optional)
- currently unused
-
procedural_city_generation.visualization.blenderize.main(points, triangles, polygons)¶ Intended to run in Blender. This means that this script must be written in Python 3 conformity. Works by reading and unpickling /outputs/buildings.txt and /outputs/<correct-heightmap-name>.txt and creating Blender Polygons for each of these.
Run from console (from parent direcotry) with
blender --python /procedural_city_generation/visualization/blenderize.py
-
procedural_city_generation.visualization.blenderize.setupscenery()¶ Sets up the lighting and render engine. In the future could provide options like “time of day”, “weather”, “renderengine”.
procedural_city_generation.visualization.visualization_params module¶
Module which contains all input parameters for this submodule, along with: - The default (recommmended) value from the developers - A short description of what the parameter changes - All values that the parameter accepts without causing this program to break.
This information can also be viewed when calling the GUI and clicking the “options” button for that specific module.
