Procedurally Generating animated 3D Models (and textures)?

[Anon]

Hey drwr, I found your last code snippet on this thread to be very helpful: [Procedural character skeleton hierarchy generation?)

Are you sure you want to be doing this?

Im pretty sure.

Try inspecting the C++ code in RigidBodyCombiner for inspiration; it basically does its work by creating an Actor on the fly.

I finally understood how it works.

As to the performance issues, yes, you’re experiencing a Python issue. PNMImage isn’t the fastest tool in the world for filling images, but Python is your bottleneck here–it’s just not a language meant for low-level per-pixel processing. You can use almost any Python image library, though; then take the raw data from the image library and feed it to the PNMImage all at once.

So i dont get it, should i even bother using another python image library? pythonware.com/products/pil/
Or is a code like this always going to be slow in python?

for x in 1024:
    for y in 1024:
        #do something

Im very new to C++, if it is required though, i would need to use the interrogate tool, right?
