• Latest changes:
  • Major allocator changes. (30. Apr 2015)

  • Gui now scales down on lower resolution screens! Even if you are on a laptop with screen resolution as low as 1366x768, you should be fine. (24. Mar 2015)
  • Added full screen support.

Controls

• Ctrl/Meta + F == Toggle fullscreen (where supported).
• Ctrl/Meta + Q == Quit application.
• On OSX, in case you don't have middle mouse click, use Command + Left click istead.

Supported formats

• Environment map:
  • Input and output formats: *.dds, *.ktx, *.hdr, *.tga.
  • Input and output types: cubemap, cube cross, latlong, face list, horizontal and vertical strip.
• Texture:
  • Input formats: *.dds, *.ktx, *.pvr.
• Mesh:
  • Input formats: *.obj, *.bin (bgfx binary format).

Known issues

• Windows
  • There seem to be some rendering problems when using OpenGL backend with a Radeon GPU. For now, on Windows, use DirectX9 or DirectX11 rendering backends until the problem gets fixed, More details here.

Installing

• Windows: No installation available. Put the cmftStudio.exe along with cmftStudio.conf in a desired folder and use it from there
• Linux: Use make install and make uninstall. This will create /usr/local/bin/cmftStudio and a desktop shortcut.

Building

git clone --recurse-submodules http://github.com/dariomanesku/cmftStudio.git
cd cmftStudio
make

• After calling make, _projects folder will be created with all supported project files. Deleting _projects folder is safe at any time.<br >
• All compiler generated files will be in _build folder. Again, deleting _build folder is safe at any time.<br >

Windows

• Visual Studio solutions can be found in _projects/vs20XX/.<br >

Linux

• From root directory call make linux-debug64 to build the application. Application should be run from the runtime directory where the config file is:<br > cd runtime<br > ./../_build/linux64_gcc/bin/cmftStudioDebug <br >
• Application can be installed or removed from the system by calling sudo make linux-install and sudo make linux-uninstall.`

OS X

• XCode
  • XCode solution can be found in _projects/xcode4/.<br >
  • XCode project contains one scheme with 4 build configurations (debug/release 32/64bit). Select desired build configuration manually and/or setup schemes manually as desired. In case you need 64bit build, it is possible to just set Build Settings -> Architectures -> Standard Architectures (64-bit Intel) (x86_64).<br >
  • Also it is probably necessary to manually set runtime directory (it is not picking it from genie for some reason). This is done by going to "Product -> Scheme -> Edit Scheme... -> Run cmftDebug -> Options -> Working Directory (Use custom working directory)" and specifying runtime/ directory from cmft root folder.<br >
• Makefile
  • Makefile can be found in _projects/gmake-osx/.<br >
  • Project can be build from the root directory by running make osx-release64 (or similar).<br > <br >
