| 202 | 115 Handling of assets |
| 116 ------------------ | |
| 117 | |
| 118 A short description how I want to handle assets. | |
| 119 | |
| 120 Support for file formats (super limited, no external dependencies, uses quite a bit of space, hoping for zip): | |
| 121 | |
| 122 - Images: BMP | |
| 123 - Audio: AU | |
| 124 - Mesh: OBJ + MTL | |
| 125 | |
| 126 In-memory layout of assets (everything needs to be converted to those while loading): | |
| 127 | |
| 128 - Images: 4 channel with each uint8 = 32 bit RGBA, little endian (R is low bits, A is high bits) | |
| 129 - Audio: 2 Channel 16 bit signed little endian, 44100Hz | |
| 130 - Meshes: non-interleaved, lists of values for each vertex, one list per attribute | |
