WARNING: BTDPE is not recommended to be used yet. Errors and issues are expected.
You need to download BTDPE from the download page. You will need a python file that runs BTDPE. That file must contain:
Pythonimport BTDPE_v1_0_0_Beta as BTDPE
import turtle
# Your code here
BTDPE.register_turtle(turtle) # This starts a loop and starts rendering. This might be changed in the future.
Note: When using BTDPE, your BTDPE module must be in the same directory as your python file that runs BTDPE and in that same directory you'll need a folder called 'BTDPE_Cache'
WARNING: Do NOT use any code after and do not put a loop before registering the turtle to BTDPE. If you put the loop before registering, BTDPE won't get to register your turtle. If you put any code after registering your turtle BTDPE will IGNORE it. (This might be changed in the future)
How to create a cube in BTDPE
To make a cube in BTDPE you must use this function:
PythonBTDPE.create_mesh(meshType, name, position, size, orientation, shadersAllowed, allShaders, shaderType, castShadows, receiveShadows, textureClass, color, attributes, textures)
Agrument
Type
Description
Works?
meshType
string
Tells BTDPE what type of mesh to create ("cube" is only supported).
✅
name
string
Sets the unique name of the mesh.
✅
position
object
Sets the coordinates {x, y, z} of the mesh.
✅
size
object
Sets the dimentions {x, y, z} of the mesh.
✅
orientation
object
Sets the orientation {x, y, z} of the mesh.
❌
shadersAllowed
boolean
Whether shaders can be applied to the mesh.
❌
allShaders
array
List of all shaders to apply.
❌
shaderType
string
Specific shader type.
❌
castShadows
boolean
Whether the mesh can cast shadows.
❌
receiveShadows
boolean
Whether the mesh can receive shadows.
❌
textureClass
array
Texture definitions.
❌
color
object
Sets the color {r, g, b} of the mesh in RGB.
❌
attributes
object
The attributes of the mesh.
❓
textures
array
Texture data for the mesh.
❌
Note: The only mesh types are: Cube in v1.0.0 Beta
Note: The "shadersAllowed", "allShaders", "shaderType", "castShadows", "receiveShadows", "textureClass", "textures", "color" and "orientation" in this function does NOT work in v1.0.0 Beta
Example:
PythonBTDPE.create_mesh("cube", "MyCube", {"x": 0, "y": 0, "z": 0}, {"x": 1, "y": 1, "z": 1}, {"x": 0, "y": 0, "z": 0}, False, [], "", False, False, [], {"r": 0, "g": 0, "b": 0}, {"canTransparent": False, "visible": True, "opacity": 1}, [])
