trying to load a mesh
Author
I''m trying to load an x-file and I''m using the sdk docs
but now I''m stuck at this point :
how are g_pMeshMaterials & g_pMeshTextures declared, because I get these errors :
error C2065: ''g_pMeshMaterials'' : undeclared identifier
error C2440: ''='' : cannot convert from ''struct _D3DMATERIAL8 *'' to ''int''
This conversion requires a reinterpret_cast, a C-style cast or function-style cast
error C2065: ''g_pMeshTextures'' : undeclared identifier
error C2440: ''='' : cannot convert from ''struct IDirect3DTexture8 ** '' to ''int''
This conversion requires a reinterpret_cast, a C-style cast or function-style cast
thanx for any advice/help in advance
Well since I had the time I just put up a lil' mesh wrapper that I made and use at:

It's very simple so go and see if it helps you (notice it uses AnsiString which is a class included with Borland C++ Builder, however it should be no big problem to change it to use another string class/c string).
(BTW: BCB kicks MS VC++'s butt any day.. why? It's not MS that's reason enough..)

They are probably declared like this:
It looks like you are working through Tutorial 6 - Meshes from the DirectX 8 SDK. I found that tutorial helpful.
