3D Environments in Plan 9
You will need:
• libgeometry (ships with 9front)
• libgraphics
and
• libobj
`mk pulldeps` should take care of everything.
TOOLS
- vis: a scene visualizer
- med: a model editor (WIP)
- solar: a solar system planetarium (WIP)
USAGE
vis [-s] [-t picfile] model...
The s option will switch the skybox on (performance will drop
considerably).
The t flag takes as input an image(6) file used to texture the first model
(if it happens to have no materials).
The models supported by the program are OBJ files with material data (MTL
files). You can find examples in the mdl/ folder.
- move camera with ↑↓ ((for|back)ward), ←→ (horizontally), PgUp and PgDn (vertically).
- rotate camera with AD (yaw), WS (pitch), QE (roll).
- change cameras with F[1-4]. cameras 1 and 3 are orthographic, 2 and 4 perspective.
- to zoom in and out use Z and X respectively, also mouse ScrUp and ScrDn.
- to show the HUD with stats and context information press H.
- pressing RMB shows a shader selection menu.
- pressing MMB shows a menu to control the main light position and texture samplers.
- holding down the LMB while moving the cursor will change the scene orientation.
- to quit press Del.

- pressing RMB shows a menu to select shaders and add primitives/solids.
- pressing MMB shows a menu to control the texture samplers.
- holding down the LMB while moving the cursor will change the scene orientation.
- to quit press Del or select "quit" from the MMB menu.
solar [-ms]
The m option enables museum mode. In this mode the planets and sun will
spawn along the x-axis, as close to each other as their sizes allow, so
you can move through them more easily.
The s option will switch the skybox on (performance will drop
considerably).
- move camera with ↑↓ ((for|back)ward), ←→ (horizontally), PgUp and PgDn (vertically).
- rotate camera with AD (yaw), WS (pitch), QE (roll).
- to zoom in and out use Z and X respectively, also mouse ScrUp and ScrDn.
- to show the HUD with stats and context information press H.
- pressing MMB shows a menu to control the movement speed.
- point at a body and click LMB to select it.
- to quit press Del or select "quit" from the MMB menu.
In addition to the key controls, there are three buttons in the command
box, at the bottom of the screen:
- look at: pressing LMB will show a menu with a list of
planets to choose from. Select one and release, and the camera
will focus on it.
- go to: pressing LMB will show a menu with a list of planets
to choose from. Select one and release, and the camera will go to
a close enough point outside of it.
- date: when not in museum mode, the location for each of the
planets will be pulled from NASA's Horizons API ephemerides for
the current date. Click on it and enter a new date—with the same
format—to grab the ephemerides from that date and update planet
positions.
