STL-XML frame generator

2,467 QContinuum  8.0 years ago

It's a little program that can read stl Stereolithography file and export to xml encoded line frames. The program is a test version and only have a .m file (Matlab). It can only run with Matlab for now. I'm working on another version that can generate a shell instead a line frame, and I am going to write it in C#, which will be much easier to use.
This program only reads ASCII encoded STL file so the model will only have default white color.
You need a licensed Matlab to run this, and I believe that whoever has Matlab know how to use it so I won't write a tutorial, but if anyone has any questions, just leave a comment.
(I didn't leave much comment in the program so also please leave your comment if you have questions about the code)

    That MLP model looks amazing! One you get it to fill in, I can't imagine what this'll mean for all kinds of builds

    @MechWARRIOR57 From what I read, the program changes a type of file (STL, which is used in certain computer models) into a Simpleplanes build. I think that should clarify everything.

    I knew that this was going to be made by someone, sometime. Awesome. I don't have matlab, but those who do have it will make good use of this.
