Does somebody here has some experience with the topic? I need to detect assimp form cmake, na dcant find any suitable example, no matter how much I google about it.
Nope, it produces an error. Also tried assimp-config.cmake that ocmes with assimp 3 and doesnt produces any result, no errors, but variables arent set.
It has good search paths, should find it on any unix based system, if you are on windows you will, as usual, need to either provide hints or set the header/lib location directly.
Ok, problem solved by including the source in the repo. Not an elegant solution, but helps with Windows port and actually was the engine author's idea.
