RenderWindow in Blender Viewport

Not strictly python-ogre related (though it should be feasible to do with python-ogre built with python3) and probably pretty pointless but here is a screen shot of an Ogre render window in a Blender viewport.

I'm not familiar with the blender python api so it will probably take some time to fashion into something usable. The current implementation is in C++/boost-python/Linux and really hacky and slow (direct copy of render window pixels).

Interesting
Does it export blender mesh data on the fly to ogre? Or does it (at the moment) just start ogre?

The second - just starts ogre.

At the moment it's pretty much just a simple wrapper to create a python module that displays the render window much in a similar manner to Qt/Ogre. I just wanted a to see if it was feasible and I'm still not sure it's worth the considerable effort to make it useful i.e. export blender mesh data on the fly etc.

Though a while back I did a mesh only importer based on another simple wrapper.

I would have preferred to have used python-ogre. However since there are already a number of issues with 1.8/ python2.X / python-ogre and Ogre's threading implementation at the moment python-ogre/python3 is a non-starter.

Hi,

I think Gamekit/OgreKit does on the fly export.
