This core semi-automates modelling buildings or other objects which can be created using a base plan. The process makes use of the scalable vector graphic (SVG) format for the base plan and is based on the concept used by architects to define a building plan. In addition, OpenSG stores the information implicitly, for example it stores the base plan which is extruded at render. This allows the definition of complex shapes without having to define large amounts of information.
The core still needs improvement in order to allow the attachment of decorations and other shapes which dress a building.
For example, for this building:
The base plan is defined in an SVG editor:
The base plan is feed to an OpenSG scene:
The scene is complemented with some basic textures and decorations:
The process takes no more than 15 minutes.
