readobj-package {readobj}

Wrapper for tiny_obj_loader single file C++ library

Description

This package provides fast reading of Wavefront OBJ files with support for some material properties using the tinyobjloader C++ library. It is noticeably faster than the pure R readOBJ implemented in the rgl package.

Details

Note that the rgl package does provide a writeOBJ function, whereas this library only focusses on fast reading of OBJ files.

As of readobj v0.4 released in June 2021, tinyobjloader was updated tag v1.0.7; this was after considering and rejecting the 2.0 series where between 2.0 rc3 and rc4 a default diffuse value was added. This update means that the internal structure of more complex meshes has changed.
