rIngameModelViewer

[zork]

I take the chance of the new addon of reviewing most of my code and thus rewriting most of my addons.

The model viewer comes first most of the time since I need it to check for ingame animations anyway.

Current alpha:

Thanks to Resike and Vruul I have now an even better function set for the model viewer that allows model tilting which was not possible before.



It works fine for SetModel(), SetDisplayInfo() and SetUnit().

It may crumble for models that cannot have a custom camera applied. We will see.

Looking good, if you need help with anything, i'm here.
Specially if you want to display the multi textured models too, i can point you to:

https://github.com/Resike/PowerAuras...ptionsData.lua

How could you get info from models beyong 52.000 ids? I was looking for this model id so badly: 55907.

Not sure if SetDisplayInfo() uses the same ID as what is the modelId.

In Pandaria the SetDisplayInfo() values reached from 1-48,000. I have not checked how far it goes in WoD yet.

It does.

I tried it on live, and managed to see all models from 1-56,000-ish. Most of them are duplicates ofc, but the new models like the lastly added mounts sit around 56k.

Just a head up, in Power Auras i updated the Reset() method like this:

function model:GetBaseCameraTarget()
    local modelfile = self:GetModel()
    if modelfile and modelfile ~= "" then
        local tempmodel = CreateFrame("PlayerModel", nil, UIParent)
        tempmodel:SetModel(modelfile)
        tempmodel:SetCustomCamera(1)
        local x, y, z = tempmodel:GetCameraTarget()
        tempmodel:ClearModel()
        return x, y, z
    end
end
 
function model:Reset()
    local modelfile = self:GetModel()
    self:ClearModel()
    self:SetModel(modelfile)
    -- With model id
    --self:SetDisplayInfo(modelid)
    self:SetRotation(0)
    self:SetPosition(0, 0, 0)
    self:RefreshCamera()
    self:SetCustomCamera(1)
    if self:HasCustomCamera() then
        local x, y, z = self:GetCameraPosition()
        local tx, ty, tz = self:GetCameraTarget()
        self:SetCameraTarget(0, ty, tz)
        self:SetOrientation(math.sqrt(x * x + y * y + z * z), - math.atan(y / x), - math.atan(z / x))
    end
    --[[self:SetCustomCamera(1)
    self:SetCameraPosition(x, y, z)
    self:SetPosition(px, py, pz)
    self:SetRotation(rot)
    self:SetCameraTarget(0, ty, tz)
    self:SetOrientation(math.sqrt(x * x + y * y + z * z), - math.atan(y / x), - math.atan(z / x))]]
end

This solution was just a temporary hack:

self:SetCameraTarget(0, 0, pi / 5)
