What do you see is wrong when you open it up with my app? I don't see anything that strikes me as wrong

BIGREG · 05-28-12, 02:12 PM

Moment , i think i have send you a bad file ,wait a minute i send a new one

Can I see the exported OBJ files from Wings3D for this change?

the dial's face has changed, that's all? I think I see why you think the app is in error. Currently the app will not set new materials for what it imports - it merely reads the data from the file. I haven't coded in the ability to see if the mtrl referenced in the OBJ file (and thus the MTL file's definition of it's physical file) exists and if so to set the subset's material to it (or create a new material and then set the subet's material to it)

What does the error say in English? I don't read German

I'll need to see the file you were trying to import, what kind of import you were trying (strict or loose), what mesh you were trying to import into, and what GR2 file you had opened

BIGREG · 05-28-12, 03:06 PM

When you import from 3DsMax ,you need to import export the AO in 3DsMax and check the option in editor to load both (but in loose mod)

Not new material assigned this is the original,but 3dsmax export the map in the folder "Maps"

ah, so you're saying that the app didn't read the new map exported out by 3DsMax?

BIGREG · 05-28-12, 04:27 PM

No the texture are present after the import ,but no change
The editor does not assign the material (texture) that I modified on the panel behind the button with 3dsMax and ditto when I change the location of UVW
in the previous view (Post:#1339) the editor in the middle shows that it has not changed the texture, while in 3DsMax when exporting it's ok, as well that after import into 3Dwings

I see a reason for this. I never coded in the reading of the mtl file

I'm writing that code now

Somehow I totally overlooked coding in the reading of the MTL file in every version released to date

That has since been taken care of in v1.1.188.1.

v1.1.188.1 also now writes the material's emissive to the MTL file on export (I overlooked that one also!)

Since SH5 does not use seperate maps for ambient, diffuse, or specular but instead uses one map for all three you should ensure your OBJ files have map_Ka, map_Kd, and map_Ks all specifying the same texture. If you don't then the texture read for map_Ks is what will be 'given' to mesh's subset's material.

When importing and you elect to import diffuse data and your MTL files reference textures for the maps and those maps are found then the app will assign those textures temporarily to the mesh's subset's material. I say temporarily because the material's pointer is not changed. All the material is told to do is replace it's current texture with the new one. Thus rendering is then done with the new texture. So if you save after importing the material's texture WILL NOT be changed in the GR2 file.

The material's properties WILL be changed. The ambient, diffuse, specular, and emissive colors will be updated in the material. The Ns value will also be updated. Thus if a save is done after importing these material properties will be saved to the GR2 file.

A new option has been added (Edit-->Options-->Camera-->Reset camera to default position on last file closed). If checked then the camera will be reset when the last opened file is closed. If not checked then the camera will stay where it is when last file is closed (maintains position and orientation).
