I require a simple POF model for the purposes of testing the look_at feature, as described in Mantis
#3115 and GitHub pull request
#530. Could any of the HLP model makers help me out? It requires no textures and can be composed entirely of model primitives. All it needs are a series of submodels arranged in a certain way, in a certain orientation.
I've created a very ugly prototype by messing around in Sketchup for 15 minutes. See the attached picture and model files in Sketchup, Collada, and 3DS formats. This model is only for reference purposes; I shudder to think what might happen if someone actually created a POF based on it.
The main model should be a T shape, where the top of the T is pointed in the positive Z direction and the cross-bar of the T is along the X axis. On either side of the T's cross bar should be individual submodels (cubes or spheres). These two submodels will serve as targets for the submodels that have look_at properties. The T should lie entirely on a flat plane, and the centers of the two submodels should be on that same plane.
On the bottom of the stem of the T should be a vertical pivot point, on which three arrow submodels are mounted. The arrows should be made of shapes that clearly point forward in the positive Z direction, and the point of the arrow should be aligned with its centerline. The three arrow submodels should be able to pivot left and right on the Y axis. There should be one arrow that is on exactly the same plane as the T and the two target submodels, one arrow a short distance above it, and one arrow a short distance below it.
Note: it should be possible to tell whether each arrow is rightside-up or upside-down. I illustrated this in Sketchup by giving each arrow a peaked "roof". The coplanar arrow and the top arrow should be rightside-up. The bottom arrow should be exactly 180 degrees upside-down, but still aligned with the axes (in contrast to the Sketchup model where the bottom arrow is not quite rotated 180 degrees).
Thanks for your assistance! Your contribution will allow me to close out the look_at feature, which should lead directly to the release candidate stage of version 3.7.4.
