What does a tool programmer need to write?
Rippers are the most customized component in MOG. Whether it be lots of little simple rippers or one large all encompassing ripper this is entirely up to the tools programmer and how their past pipelines may have worked. Often times, the processing of an asset is nothing more than sending it through a series of already built adhoc tools which have already been written and most likely already in use. These tools would be things like image reducers, polygon filters, polygon stripping, image blenders, etc. These tools are usually precisely targeted to one thing and highly optimized for their project’s specific needs. Depending on the team’s needs, additional time could be spent integrating MOG directly into their existing custom applications and editors making it even easier for their content creators.
