can only see part of charachter when x file from panda is used
Author
i used panda to export a charachter from 3DS max and i can only see the buggers hair, but the rest of him is invisible.when i turn off all lights, his hair is white, but when lights are on, his hair is pitch black . what settings do i need? i got a mesh that worked lastnight ( by fluke) but id like to know what i need to do so as i can do it anytime.

ok, ive been doing expirements, and using different meshes, i can see different parts of them. the second mesh i created, i export groups for each body part( in poser) and then i just import to 3dS Max and export as a .x. i can see the guys legs and shoes, but no other part.is it something to do with normals?
Are you making sure to render every subset? Complex meshes usually have multiple subsets that you must loop through as render.

yes. here is the loop that goes though the mesh. from what i know, it goes though everything. anyway, it displayed a full charachter yesterday
private void LoadMesh(string file) { ExtendedMaterial [] mtrl; mesh = Mesh.FromFile(file,MeshFlags.Managed,device,out mtrl); if((mtrl != null) && (mtrl.Length > 0)) { meshMaterials = new Material[mtrl.Length]; meshTextures = new Texture[mtrl.Length]; //store each material and texture for(int i = 0; i < mtrl.Length ; i++) { meshMaterials = mtrl.Material3D; if((mtrl.TextureFilename != null)&&(mtrl.TextureFilename != string.Empty)) { meshTextures = TextureLoader.FromFile(device,@"F:\project research\Begining Meshes\Meshes\" +mtrl.TextureFilename); } } } }public void DrawMesh(float x) { //device.Transform.World = Matrix.Translation(0,0,0)*Matrix.Scaling(1,1,1) ; device.Transform.World = Matrix.Translation(angle,0,-angle); for (int i = 0; i < meshMaterials.Length;i++) { device.Material = meshMaterials; device.SetTexture(0,meshTextures); mesh.DrawSubset(i); } if( x >=100) { device.Transform.World = Matrix.Translation(-50,0,0); x = 0; angle = 0; } }This topic is closed to new replies.
