How to use Blender as a Box2D Platformer Level Editor [Tutorial]
Hey guys so you want a level editor but don't want to build one yourself right? Who does? You basically need to create a entire tangential project, with full GUI editor and undo tree etc. Unless that's a goal of yours (selling etc?) you probably want an easier solution.
Well folks, look no further than your good friend Blender 3D. The same tool you use for modeling crazy cartoon knights swinging swords and whatnot, can be your level editor for your 2D game.
A Plan
So how do we do this? What do we need?- We need a output format that's easy to parse.
- We need to decide on attributes that we can assign meaning to (for box2D and our game)
- The texturing and vertex placement etc, comes for free since we're using a 3D modeling format :)
The OBJ file format.
Why OBJ? This is super easy to parse. You could use another format, if you're already using a parser (I recommend ASSIMP :) ), but for this tutorial, I'm going to use OBJ so you can see all the gory details of parsing it. Don't run yet, it's easier than it sounds :)
Ok so we know OBJ can specify vertex types, color, texture etc, but how does this relate to Box2D and how will we attribute context so we know what object type to create?
Aha, that's pretty simple too. We can just use parts of the Blender material name to assign meaning. For example, for solid static objects we could have the substring "solid" to designate this is a Box2D object which will be collidable with other physics objects.
For example
material name = "solid_wood"
 |
Notice material name "solid_wood"
For maybe a dynamic rock we could use:
material name = "ball_dynamic"
Or even easier, if the code knows about this object type, we could just name the type of game object outright:
material name = "rabid_squirrel"
Then we just do a string compare on the material name of each object read to see if we should make a "rabid_squirrel" at that position.
rabid_squirrel is the material name, but it's also the name of the GameObject (RabidSquirrel) :) easy peezy
Note: For Hoarder Monkey, I just assume anything without a special keyword "solid" etc, or an outright object type we know, about is just a decoration object that has no collision associated with it (pass through).
You could also do nutty things in blender, such as assign meaning to different objects that should be joined with a joint. E.g.
One object in Blender could be:
material name = "wood_object1_jointA"
The other part of the joint could be:
material name = "wood_object2_jointA"
Then you could assign a pivot point by another object(s) and just use the center of this object as the anchor point(s), etc. But I won't get into that in this tutorial. It's a bit complex, for just getting started.
We can also assign other meaning to the z value of the objects. For example, far away objects could use a special shader for parallax etc (see other post)
Anyway, with these little tricks we can repurpose Blender as a pretty solid Box2D editor.
First let's build a OBJ parser. For brevity I'm not going to explain OBJ format or the parser, but I am open to any questions so I can clarify anything.
Just to note the current known limitations are:

Lets get started.
First let's build a OBJ parser. For brevity I'm not going to explain OBJ format or the parser, but I am open to any questions so I can clarify anything.
Just to note the current known limitations are:
- Joined objects will crash the parser
- No colored vertices, just textures
- Don't export normals (it might do weird things?)
- Important: Make sure the winding order of your objects is correct (the normal shown in blender should point out of the screen). This is subtle, so if you're unsure, turn them on in the viewer:
- First push 1 on your Number pad so your view has the blender Z axis up and blender X axis to the right.
 |
Select Item; Push N to get item properties menu; Go into edit mode (Tab); Select Face normals. I had to shift my Ortho view by holding middle mouse button so I could see the normal is point out of the screen. |
- All objects must be triangulated before exporting to OBJ (attach the "triangulate" modifier to every object. No need to apply it though, if you set the "apply modifiers" option on export).
- If you don't, things will not render correctly and or, Box2D will crash due to sending vertices in the wrong order (see issue above) . Let's just avoid all these issues and triangulate :)
- When exporting to obj: make sure that your
- Forward axis is set to "-Z Forward" (for opengl )
- Up Axis to "Y Up"
- I also chose relative path mode so textures paths are referenced correctly):
So great, now how do we model this in blender? For dynamic objects I simply use the "Import as planes" menu option.
If this option is not available in your menu (it isn't by default usually) enable it by going to:
File->User Preferences; then search for "plane" and check the box on "Import-Export: Import Images as Planes", addon.
When you import your plane, Be sure to rotate the object by 90 degrees on the x axis.
For repeating texture type objects, ground, etc, you can simply model your 2D object however you want, taking care that your normals are pointing out of the screen. Then you can UV map the object to your liking.
Parsing the ".obj"
Feel free to skip over this section!Remember, this is just to be a clear example. Please feel free to use assimp for a free out of the box, excellent parser. But if you are having a hard time porting to your platform, the below obj parser, while limited, should do just fine for most situations.
Here's our class definitions for storing the obj data. ObjFile is your main data source, that will contain all your ObjModels and a list of vertices and texture coordinates that they will index from (that's the structure of Obj).
Ok, ok I'll give you a little example on the file output, but this is a bit out of scope of this tutorial:
# Blender v2.70 (sub 0) OBJ File: 'test_blender_level.blend
# www.blender.org
o palm_tree_Plane.046
v 5.825770 2.393540 -25.426136
v 36.587597 2.393540 -25.426136
v 5.825770 33.155369 -25.426109
v 36.587597 33.155369 -25.426109
vt 0.999900 0.000100
vt 0.999900 0.999900
vt 0.000100 0.999900
vt 0.000100 0.000100
usemtl palm_tree
s off
f 18/9 20/10 19/11
f 17/12 18/9 19/11
- In this case the line starting with:
- 'o' is the object name;
- 'v' a vertex,
- 'usemtl' is the material name of the object (important!),
- 's', ignore it it's about shading (if you're doing just textured sprites, you won't care)
- 'f', the "faces" of the object. (e.g "f 18/9 20/10 19/11" The vertex at index 18, is paired with texture coord at index 9, etc).
Anyway, that's not terribly pertinent to this tutorial. Please look up wavefront format to get a better grasp on the file if you're interested.

Ok sorry for the dump there. Like I said, you could skip that if you're not interested in parsers. The key thing to take away here is not the low level details, but the overall idea on how to tie together Blender 3D file exports with creating a level in your game.
How to give this Obj data Context
Now let's take the data that we parsed and create our game objects. First we take in the big hunk of data (ObjFile) and create every game object from the ObjModel objects it contains.//*****************************************************************************
/**
* Load level based on OBJ parsed info

void Game::loadLevel( ObjFile& obj_file)

Vector3Df location;
Vector3Df size;

{
LOGE("Obj to load has no faces!: %s\n",
obj.name.c_str());
continue;
}
loadModel(obj);
}
}
Here's an example of using a material property to set a GameObject property. In other words using Blender as your Game level editor! Extend as you'd like.
This just uses the string comparison to see if the object is a METAL_BOX and creates it based on that specific material name.
//*****************************************************************************
/**
* Load model based on OBJ parsed info (from #ObjFile)

material.c_str());
if(obj_model.faces[0].material_name == METAL_BOX_MATERIAL)
{
LOGD("Create a METAL BOX from OBJ: %s\n",
obj_model.name.c_str());
MetalBoxSprite* b = new MetalBoxSprite();
b->createFromObj(obj_model);
}
....
Here's another example of using a material property to set a GameObject property. Extend as you'd like.
This one is a little different than the last, it will take the partial match of the material name to decide if the object should be semi transparent.

material.c_str());
// Example of using material name for object property

createBox2DBody(Vector2Df::convertTo2D(position));
}

Physics Magic
Here's where the physics magic happens! We will not create the box2D object from the ObjModel parsed. I just use a Box2D, b2PolygonShape object so we can create any editor object (so long as they are counter-clockwise winding vertices)

Ultimately, you decide how you want to hack the material name string to do your evil bidding.
Hacking Blender for your game level editor is so.... evil
