Prereqs

Just for ease, you should npm install -g http-server so that you can serve this viewer easily.

Get the code

  • BitBucket Repo: https://[email protected]/csand/1upusa.git
  • Note the 3d-viewer folder. That is the viewer for the files you'll generate.
  • You don't need to worry about WordPress or anything. Don't bother trying to MAMP.

Converting .STEP files

  1. Download the tools here
    • Extract the files and open a command prompt to the directory. Notice the EXEs
  2. For each .STEP file (download them here)
    1. Copy the .STEP file into the root directory
    2. Run splitasm.exe -o OUTPUT_DIR -trees "STEP FILE NAME.STEP"
    3. Run export_product_asm.exe "STEP FILE NAME.STEP" -d o OUTPUT_DIR
    4. Rename OUTPUT_DIR to match the .STEP file you just processed, e.g. ASSEMBLY_HEAVY_DUTY_DOUBLE and move it into the 3d-viewer directory of the repo.
    5. Run http-server from the 3d-viewer directory.
    6. Try accessing the 3D viewer via (example:) http://localhost:8080/asm-frames.html?ASSEMBLY_HEAVY_DUTY_DOUBLE/
    7. Check in the generated files.
    8. If any failure occurs, note which file caused problems and any errors if possible.
