Hello I start work with three.je some years ago. Many things has changed since then. Now three is imported as module. and I am confused about including three.js into a project. How does it work? I’ve downloaded three.js from github. I now have a bunch of directories. I can see examples and open th…

[image] Mugen87: You can still develop your code like similar to the old style. This is NOT the old style. The old style was: <script src="three.js"></script> <script src="lib/controls/TrackballControls.js"></script> <script src="lib/controls/OrbitControls.js"></script>

Truly not. Three.js isn’t twenty years old. I worked with about four or five years ago.

At least I get it run, but I only can use file paths from examples. But I don’t want to. I now think about babylon.js or an other alternative to three.js. Why should I install and learn to export/import modules and install node.js to develope my own application? Now three.js is not useful anymore, I…

I think you have a point there. However, I believe you have several alternate options. You can use an older version of three. You can use no three whatsoever. You can fork three, and change the import/export mechanism to whatever works for you.

[image] BulliM: But I don’t want to. I now think about babylon.js or an other alternative to three.js. Well, that’s reasonable. If three.js no longer suits you then you should check out the alternatives. However, you can still use the old style: <script src="three.js"></script> <script src=…

[image] looeee: These files are still in the repo to maintain backwards compatibility EDIT: Just found. Thank you. :slight_smile:

I can understand your frustration a little. If you’re not constantly busy with something and it develops rapidly, it can happen. :worried: I’ve had these phases for the last :five: :zero: years. But I couldn’t just continue on the basis of my first program either. Although this beginning still gi…

[image] hofk: I will try out the module variant next year. 2020 :fireworks: It’s next year! :sparkler: For the collection (basic examples) I copy the required files of the current revision. So the examples remain safely executable. The example ( ShaderLib normalmap is no longer available …

If this works, it would be great! Thank you. I’ll do that at last, when I know, what modules I need. At the moment, I use modules from examples. I’ve tried nodejs, but it is a mess! Needs about twenty minutes to install, then on npm install pathtomyproject three: no package.json found… no help, no d…

[image] hofk: I’ve had these phases for the last :five: :zero: years :exploding_head: May your 51st year be both prosperous and serene, sensei. The modules are statically interdependent I don’t think that’s the case here. The examples rely on three.module.js but three.module.js doesn’t r…
