Why can't I load a .OBJ file into Python Ursina?

Question

I am using the python Ursina engine. I want to import a.OBJ file, but it never works, yet no errors are raised. I have tried:

from ursina import *
from ursina.mesh_importer import *

app = Ursina()

model123 = load_model('model123.obj')
model123Entity = Entity(model=model123)
    
def update():
    move()

EditorCamera()
app.run()

I have also tried it without the.obj ending. Any help?

I have now tried:

from ursina import *
from ursina.mesh_importer import *

app = Ursina()

model123 = load_model(obj_to_ursinamesh('model123.obj'))
model123_Entity = Entity(model=model123)

app.run()

I get the error:

AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'glob'
AL lib: (EE) ALCwasapiPlayback_mixerProc: WaitForSingleObjectEx error: 0x102

Answer 1

The issue is triangulation. The models faces must only be triangles. You can do this in Blender or other 3d software of that such type. I got this information thanks to Pokepetter on Github, at this issue .

For example, consider using Blender , or other software similar, to create your models and use the triangulate modifier on meshes to make them compatible with Ursina Engine.

Answer 2

Try using the triangulation modifier, which quickly sorts this. Subsequently, you must ensure that you export back to an .obj , however .blend files are supported by Ursina engine.
