Hpl3:Game:url protocol
URL Protocol
An URL protocol is a way to link to a application from a webpage. We have support for this in both Depth and the ModelViewer. It can be used to give links to entities or map positions when giving feedback.
Installation
Download the .bat file and place it in depth/redist/ folder and run it. This will link the protocol to the correct directory and files.
ModelViewer
To link directly to a mesh or entity you can use the following URL:
modelview:filename.ent
The supported file types are .dae, .ent and some .dae_anim files.
It is also possible to open a model file and make it play an animation. To do this use the following syntax
modelview:filename.dae filepath\animation_filename.dae_anim
Ex) modelview:professor.dae entites\characters\urban\professor\animations\idle.dae_anim
Depth
To link to a map file you can use the following URL
depth:mapfile.map
You can also add any other of the command lines after the url
Google Docs
Google Docs does not support URLs that do not link to webpages. To get around this you can use a URL shortener and add that as the URL to the document.
Just paste the protocol url and press Shorten!
