melonJS and 3D

[iphone...@gmail.com]

Is it possible to use 3D models made and textured in blender? (I'm talking about character with bones and animations)

[Jason Oster]

Loosely speaking, anything is possible. :)

melonJS does not have any built-in support for WebGL, which is recommended for doing 3D in the browser. I suppose some integration with three.js (or another 3D library) would help quite a bit.

The other alternative is rendering your model in Blender to a series of 2D animations, which melonJS can handle directly.

You mean pose the char, render, save image. This multiple times  then make a spritesheet?

I don't use Blender (dabbled with it a bit, long ago) but there must be some tools or plugins available for taking an animated model and exporting a series of frames, or a gif, or movie file. Ideally, do your rigging and keyframe animations as normal, then export it as a spritesheet.
