COLLADA OpenGL Effects Exporter and Mesh Importer
OpenGL effects can now be exported from RenderMonkey in COLLADA1.4.1 format. The exporter outputs geometry, shaders, and the texture assets using COLLADA1.4.1’s profile_GLSL. It is possible to view the COLLADA output using the COLLADA OpenGL Effects Viewer that we provide on the download page. This is a Windows-based binary plug-in for OpenSceneGraph 2.2 . Also included in the download is the Open Source code for the viewer and instructions on how to build it.
RenderMonkey also has a new geometry importer that will load triangle meshes from COLLADA 1.4.1 documents. This is an ideal way to load COLLADA geometries and prototype COLLADA effects for your content pipeline.
