The past 2 weeks I've been working on a program to convert #GrandPrix2 car models to OBJ. https://github.com/Dahie/gpx2obj-ruby I had to learn reading binary files, #kaitai, had to learn a lot about SVG. Still somethings to do, but generally quite happy now. Ideally I'd love to put some of this into the GP2careditor, but my C++ is not good enough. #simracing #x86GP2 #gp2

First spec meeting of the year successful. Many more to come on the road to 1.0, but we've actually started defining a ground truth using #kaitai.

First milestone will be implementing the version handshake routine: https://github.com/rabbitControl/RCP/blob/1.0/Flow.md

Shattering the eyeglass: Using Kaitai Structs to dissect the eyeglass’ contents

by @beet_keeper

In my post from 2012: Genesis of a File Format, I created a new file format – the Eyeglass file format. The format provides a mechanism to persist information about a patient’s eye health following a checkup at an opticians. Today in 2023 we can use the format to understand how to make use of Kaitai Structs for understanding file formats.

Given the disclaimer that I am not actually an optician and that the format is purely illustrative, let’s look at the eyeglass again below.
