volTron Library - first release available
May 20th, 2009, 1:46am  
Hello - I have released an library for plotting openGL volumes as voxelclouds - it is called Voltron!

dm.ncl.ac.uk/joescully/voltronlib

I made this library as part of my work for a module on my Masters Degree in Digital Media at CultureLab Newcastle.

The library will allow you to plot a 3D voxel form from a .img or .raw.gz or just add voxels dynamically to an array.

Have a look at the site for some more details on datasets etc. and some of the output you can get.

Am sure it has some holes in it, its the first library I've tried to make, and there is functionality I would like to add when I get time - am open to suggestions if you want to get in touch, and the source is there so fork it, if your that way inclined.

Thanks

since I got your library my controlp5 doesn't work in any way. not even the examples of controlp5. it dosen't recognize any "string" in the tabs or else. anyone else experiencing this?

hmm, that is very strange, there is an example patch distributed with the library that uses a lot of controlP5 elements (its called FullExampe).  Because the Library uses openGL it can sometimes not play so nice with things that live outside of that context.  

Make sure that you are calling the plotVox() method inside a matrix.  Let me know if it doesn't work still and I will have a think.  There shouldn;t be any issue really -I have it working fine with controlP5 and volTron.

Hello,
Is it possible to take somewhere working version of this library with actual processing (1.0.9) or get older processing where it's working (1.0.1 or maybe 1.0.3)?

in  processing 1.0.9 it makes an error
"Exception in thread "Animation Thread" java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no jogl in java.library.path"

Prokop, looks like an OpenGL problem (do you have a Mac? With Snow Leopard?) than something else. Try running an OpenGL example and see if you have the same error.

hello,
No, this problem appears only if I copy volTron into Libraries directory, if I delete it, the problem disappears again, and OpenGL work normally.

It was already refered:
http://processing.org/discourse/yabb2/num_1252679977.html

I only ask if there is any easy (whithout recompilation) way how to try volTorn despite this problem (I don't mind change of processing version to older but I can't download it anywhere)

Thanks
