does godot think about adding simple modelling feature?

imdjs

HI I'm new to godot ,but I'm a blender user for about 6 years and have some experience in the game engine inside blender(I also have developed some addons for blender using python and C++) ,I think It is perfect that a modelling software include a game engine or a game engine include the modelling feature, so that we don't need to import \ export models from one software to anoter software on and on.... is the modelling feature possible be implemented via plugins? if so I will be more interesting in it. we may don't need professional modelling feature ,just need simple modify function for example change the shape of model by editing some vertices or something.

This belongs to general discussion. Until we vote on patreon for a modeling tool inside Godot, there is almost no chances you get one.

We have essentially everything we need to make our own tools. :)

I actually think this fits better in 3D, but I'm OK with it remaining in general chat.

thank you,now I have a big confidence in godot to implement my wish.

And in case you prefer to work in another language there is GDNative to check out too: http://docs.godotengine.org/en/3.0/tutorials/plugins/gdnative/gdnative-c-example.html

I didn't understood he was asking the possibility to create the plugin himself. It's possible, the complexity will be the plugin interface and able to manage faces and vertex selection.

Godot may be getting some basic 3D modeling abilities through CSG.

The stack of nodes should be collapsed as one geometry node when you finished your CSG modeling. I would prefer integration of terrain and vegetation plugins in the editor, it's something anyone can use without modeling skills. But sure we can't get all at once.

CSG's could be real great for creating cave systems for your terrain. ;)

I think CSG requires no open faces...that is solid geometry...think a cube versus a plane.
