🌐 F3D Web

F3D is now available as a 3D web viewer!

Thanks to webassembly, you can now use F3D in the comfort of your browser.
F3D Web is a simple yet complete application based on the f3d javascript package available at https://f3d.app/web

🖼️ Rendering Improvements

Rendering improvements have been added!

F3D now uses Khronos' "PBR Neutral" tone mapping for nicer renderings:

Before:

no

Now:

neutral

You can also now specify your own custom post-processing shader for even fancier effects, using --final-shader option, here using a "negative" shader.

📸 Screenshot

Do you use F3D interactively and wants to take a screenshot at any point?
Just press F12 and a screenshot will be saved on disk.
F3D will name and number the image so you can save many screenshots as you want but you can specify your own filename template using --screenshot-filename if you prefer.
