Exporting as object coordinates 
Submitted by Daniel Saunders on Mon, 2007-10-29 15:59

I see that there are a number of options for exporting 3D rendered versions
of framsticks runs, but is there a way to export a video (or just a still
frame) of only the 3D coordinates of the elements, such as the limbs, in a
scene?

There are sample scripts available, see for example

No, but the POV-Ray export is quite close - it contains body part
coordinates and connections without the actual 3D shapes.
a simple text processing is all you need to extract the coordinates.

see:

BeginPart(0)
PartGeometry(<7.70451,15.0958,-0.0113741>,<-0,-0,0>)
EndPart()
BeginPart(1)
PartGeometry(<8.70451,15.0958,-0.0113741>,<-0,-0,0>)
EndPart()
BeginJoint(0,1)
JointGeometry(<7.70451,15.0958,-0.0113741>,<8.70451,15.0958,-0.0113741>,<-0,-0,0>)
EndJoint()
