✨ Main options: ✨

okay so here’s the option menu, and every single one is invited to the group chat 💅

• -h | -? — show help, bestie. that’s it. that’s the whole vibe 🫶
• -i <input> — input file name.
• -o <output> — output file name.
• -point_cloud — forces the input to be encoded as a point cloud.
• -qp <value> — quantization bits for the position attribute, default=11.
• -qt <value> — quantization bits for the texture coordinate attribute, default=10.
• -qn <value> — quantization bits for the normal vector attribute, default=8.
• -qg <value> — quantization bits for any generic attribute, default=8.
• -cl <value> — compression level [0-10], most=10, least=0, default=7.
• --skip ATTRIBUTE_NAME — skip a given attribute, and the attribute names are NORMAL, TEX_COORD, GENERIC.
• --metadata — use metadata to encode extra information in mesh files.
• -preserve_polygons — encode polygon info as an attribute.

⚠️ tiny but important note, bestie: Use negative quantization values to skip the specified attribute. that’s the rule, no cap 💀
