`hxmesh` Module¶

Source code: hxmesh.py

The hxmesh module provides an HxMesh class which derives from ReadWriteFile and is used to read and write Devil Daggers mesh data.

`HxMesh` Class¶

class vgio.devildaggers.hxmesh.HxMesh¶

Class for working with HxMesh files.

Example

Load a file named “boid” and access mesh object attributes:

from vgio.devildaggers.hxmesh import HxMesh
with HxMesh.open('boid') as boid:
    indices = boid.indices
    vertices = boid.vertices

classmethod HxMesh.open(file, mode='r')¶

Open a ReadWriteFile object where file can be a path to a file (a string), or a file-like object.

The mode parameter should be ‘r’ to read an existing file, ‘w’ to truncate and write a new file, or ‘a’ to append to an existing file.

open() is also a context manager and supports the with statement:

with ReadWriteFile.open('file.ext') as file:
    file.save('file2.ext')

Parameters

Returns

An ReadWriteFile object constructed from the information read from the file-like object.

Raises

HxMesh.close()¶: Closes the file pointer if possible. If mode is ‘w’ or ‘a’, the file will be written to.

HxMesh.save(file)¶

Writes data to file.

class vgio.devildaggers.hxmesh.Vertex¶

Class for representing an HxMesh vertex.

Example

Create a vertex object:

from vgio.devildaggers.hxmesh import Vertex
position = 0, 0, 0
normal = 0, 0, 1
uv = 0, 1
vertex = Vertex(*position, *normal, *uv)

Vertex.__init__(position_x, position_y, position_z, normal_x, normal_y, normal_z, u, v)¶

Constructs an HxMesh Vertex object.
