But as is, the data is stored per frame
But as is, the data is stored per frame
NHmm wait, it already supports multiple layers
AA path is a path is a path. Camera paths have extra data per control point
Aorientation, speed and some other stuff
Aoh but i guess they are beziers natively. .latk is only linear paths?
NJust coordinates, interpreting them is the responsibility of the software that reads them
Aok. so we could store the spline data per handle too
NWhy not GLTF
Ahmmmm. quick google shows gltf supports cubic splines
NThe problem with more complex data is each 3D app is going to interpret it differently
Aprobably close enough. but not sure how you stuff metadata into a gltf spline
Amaybe animation keyframes would make the most sense
NSo something like GLTF where the implementations already exist, and are standardized, would be good
Athe reason i thought latk was - much less documentation to wade through!
NWell that's true that we can do whatever we want with it
AstandardizedHello. Are you new to computing?
A
Abut yeah
NIn this case I've sat on enough MPEG meetings to say yeah they at least try
NDefinitely the Khronos group's prior effort, Collada, was a disaster in that respect
Mopen to glTF extensions for the camera paths too 
NSo I've been meaning to do a update to Latk where it can store transforms per layer
NBy adding a transform block to any frame on that layer
NSo that would work right?
NAn Latk file with two layers
NOne with a single frame for the artwork, and one with a frame for each camera keyframe
NI also wonder how will we deal with time here
NWe could add a timestamp field to the transform block
NAnd the reading program could attempt to create a keyframe at that clock time on the current timeline, no matter what the frame rate
NCome think of it, that's a good field to add at the frame level
NTimestamp and duration, for use as overrides; without that information it just follows the global framerate
Ai might be misunderstanding you but camera path is just points.
Aa single bezier with metadata at each control point
NNot sure how to represent bezier curves in the json but open to suggestions
NLike, what fields do we need
ZWould love to have the ability to save imported models to a sketch so if you delete imported models in your models folder it will always be a child of the sketch itself by importing it to the sketch file. I had a couple of pieces I did where I deleted the models in the folder and now would have to find and reimport for them to show up in the sketch.
AI can't remember - does it load models if they are in the same folder as the .tilt file itself? That might be a good compromise. We could automate moving stuff into a subfolder (bit like Quark's "collect" option if anyone is old enough to remember that)
ZRight now it just loads from the models folder. So any model that is in a sketch from that folder gets deleted from your sketch as well if it's removed from the source folder.
ZTo be able to package it together would be extremely helpful.
ZIt does this in adobe medium for example. If you import a model into your scene, it keeps it with the original one. It is never separate.
ZSo ultimately if we are able to pull it into a sketch it becomes part of the file.
MI believe Tim was talking about this as part of the user made brushes, how it would be good to package up. Can definitely see the use! 
VHey everyone! Not so long ago i saw on a post on tweeter i think by @andybak, where 3D objects could behave like guides. I just was actually waiting for this feature for years. May i ask what about it and is it possible to test?
AIt's slightly limited. Convex shapes only (because I'm using Unity mesh colliders). It was really just a quick side-effect of other stuff I was doing so I thought "yeah. why not".
ADoes that still work for you? It's on this branch: https://docs.openbrush.app/alternate-and-experimental-builds/3d-shapes (although I will shortly be moving where in the UI it lives after getting some feedback)
VYeah, that one is last on my list. It works well
AWhat do you mean by "last on your list"?
VYesterday i told on ot support and bugs channel that i made a list of all OB versions i have with statistics of number of features for myself. You asked if i can share this, so i organized it google sheets and this version is the last there..yet
AAh yes! I didn't realise that was also you.
AI have a short memory on Discord
Ain fact - I need to reply to your last comment there...
