Dump data for Position and Rotation?

Hello, I've been playing/exploring in Space Engine and it is a blast!

Now, I want to use my recorded videos for some 3D stuff, so I want a "dump" of the Position and Rotation of the camera while I'm recording the video. This is so I can then translate the data to a format that can be read by 3D modeling software (like Blender). This will now serve as camera data so the 3D objects I created will sync with the video! biggrin

biggrin

So is this possible? I have checked the places.cfg in /config, and Rotation and Position seem to be supported. Don't worry about the conversion, I think I can do that part by myself.

if this question does not belong in General Discussions area, kindly inform me

Thanks

If you talking about recording the track, no, it is impossible.

Do you mean it's impossible to implement using the game enigne? Or maybe there's a workaround for it?

Because I am thinking along the lines of

- Retrieving the Position and Rotation values from the memory address that Space Engine uses
- Since pressing F6 then Add will write the Position/Rotation to the places.cfg file, then it should be possible to emulate a similar function but it instead captures the Pos/Rot as the image is writing during continuous capture mode (F9).
