So far only works in blockbench coordinate system (right handed, y-up, z-forward) converting it to our system, so for now you have to be sure you export your mesh in the right system if its from another program. Doesn't load textures so they are still stored in game assets. This is a really simple start that i will build up on in future PRs.
A few questions still remain:
Do we want to keep the legacy .obj loading?(no, because in a later pr when i add joints i wont be able to add them and it will brake stuff, and thats generally useless)Do we want to load the file data ourselves and then feed it into the cgltf or just let cgltf handle that(turns out there is no problem with that so its best to do that so that we can have local allocations)Do we want to try handle other possible edge cases that might happen when exporting from other applications? (like different coordinate systems and stuff)(yes Allow loading block models with different coordinate systems #2777)
