Hi
Before attempting, I’m wondering if if for the most part, it’s doable to replace ALL “THREE.*” with “v3d” in Three.js projects that people have pasted on github, in order to have them work with the v3d library?

I’m looking at trying to get this one working…

Specifically this simulation.js
(It’s last update was 4 yrs ago just fyi)

Thanks

sure you can try, but the API may be outdated

Such replacement is actually not needed because v3d also declares the global variable “THREE” for compatibility reasons. So, it should be fine to leave it as is.

But, as Yuri said the API can be outdated. If the code you’re trying to use is not from the official three.js examples repository (which is supported and tested by the three.js developers) and it’s several years old then there are high chances that it will have issues even when used with the latest three.js version, because three.js itself (and hence verge3d) have changed much over the years.
