ROKURO Pro

ROKURO Pro displays both the Sculpted Prim and its surface texture.

A sculpted Prim can be edited in the three modes: ROKURO/TOKOROTEN/MAGE. The three modes can be combined and used. Furthermore, ROKURO Pro can correct or adjust a coordinate for every control point in the BITMAP mode. For more information on the different modes, see below.

ROKURO Pro was previously called AGARI. AGARI means tea to finish off the meal, and finishing.

ROKURO Pro 3.0.62 (10/29/15) The trial period is for three days. During the trial period, you cannot export Sculpted Prim files.	Win 32bit Virus checked by NOD32 ver.12486.

Install

There is no installer.

Uninstall

You can uninstall only by deleting the file called "ROKURO_PRO.exe".

You can drag an object and can make it rotate.
You can change the scale of the object using the mouse wheel.

ROKURO

ROKURO is a Japanese turning lathe, a potter's wheel. ROKURO mode makes a solid lathe-type object.

TOKOROTEN

TOKOROTEN is Japanese extruded jelly. TOKOROTEN mode makes a pushed-out object.

Bitmap

The control points can be adjusted in 1 pixel increments by changing the numeric value in the text box, then clicking on the boxes with the arrow on them.

MAGE

MAGE means bending in Japanese.
MAGE mode makes shapes similar to bent pipes such as neon tubes.

*Shapes using a combination of TOKOROTEN and ROKURO can be made.
However, these may not be entirely satisfactory.

Texture Menu (On the far left of the menu bar)

-Reset

It returns to default texture.

-Load

The image which will eventually cover your shape will be loaded. The software resizes the file size to 512x512. The file types that can be used are JPEG/PNG/BMP/PSD.

File

-New

You can choose the aspect ratio of a sculpted prim from the following.
32x32(Default), 64x16, 128x8, 256x4, 16x64, 8x128, 4x256.

-Load

Sculpted Prim Texture is loaded from a bitmap or previously exported text. The form of the image which is available is .tga .jpg .bmp .png .obj .txt.
* The size of Sculpted Prim must be either of 64x64, 128x128, 256x256, or 512x512.
* There is no compatibility in an ROKURO and TOKOROTEN export file. Only ROKURO 33Point file is compatible.
* If you choose "Blender TGA File", it can read correctly the VU map that was output by Blender.
*You can't load Collada file.

-Save

A sculpted prim bitmap (.tga), .obj file, and ROKURO/TOKOROTEN/MAGE export file is specified and outputted.
*An output sculpted prim bitmap's size is 64x64/128x128. .obj file can use Wings3D.
*You can save Collada file for Mesh of Secondlife. The same UV map as the sculpted prim is outputted. Only High of LOD is outputted.
When you select it, you can select following option.

Hard Angle

You can specify the hard angle of normal vector.

The optimized vertices

The vertices are optimized. Almost the same UV map as the sculpted prim is outputted.

Save .dae and .obj file

The optimized OBJ file is outputted together. Because the Collada file and the OBJ file use the same texture file, you can use it by SOMATO.

-Setup

You can set up Rotation Degree and Twist Degree. You can set up the TGA size of the file to save. I recommend 64x64. Copy Protection by transparency - When a Prim is made or modified, you can make it transparent to prevent the texture from being copied by screen capture.

-Exit

The program is ended.

Edit

When you choose more than one control point, the following function is available from a right-click popup menu. When you don't select any control points, the popup menu is not enabled.

-UNDO/REDO

There is a 256-step UNDO and REDO function.

-Select All

All the control points currently displayed are chosen. You may shift + click to choose points individually, or draw a box around the points you wish to select.

-Rotate+

A chosen control point turns counterclockwise around those centers of gravity.

-Rotate-

A control point turns clockwise around the center of gravity of the chosen control point.

-Horizontal Align

Chosen control points are lined up on the horizontal axis.

-Vertical Align

Chosen control points are lined up on the vertical axis.

-Equal Intervals

The interval of three or more selected control points is evenly arranged.

-Twist+/Twist-

An object is twisted. While displaying the TOKOROTEN tab, only the control point of the side is twisted.

-Optimize(TOKOROTEN Mode only)

The location of the control point which is inside is optimized.

-Same width

While displaying the MAGE tab, thickness of an object is made the same.(MAGE Tab only)

-Flip

The upper and lower sides of Prim are replaced.

Shape

-An object is transformed into a multiple-sided pillar etc.
-Start From Vertex The angle which creates a polygon is changed.

View

-Zoom

You can expand the editing screen. You can also change the magnification by using the wheel of the mouse.

-Grid

You can overlay a grid. The control points will snap to the grid.

-Display Background/Load Background

You can place an image in the background of the editing screen.
The files types of the image which can be used are JPEG/PNG/BMP/PSD.

Level of detail

The level of detail is displayed in three distances: Near, Middle and Far.

Tools

You can use the plug-ins which are in the same folder as this program.
When you use it for the first time, you have to register it.

*You can use plug-ins for ROKURO Pro 2.0.
