3d how to?

marvin · Post by **marvin** » Mon Aug 09, 2004 1:00 am

I have PureBasic 3.9 ,3ds Max5 and Ogre 0.14.0 and I want to add 3d stuff to my applications.

To add 3d mesh, I need to export my meshes to *.xml from 3dsMax with the OGRE exporter. Then I would have to convert the *.xml exported file to *.mesh. :]

Right?

I know that Purebasic 3.9 has not yet upgraded OGRE to implement 0.14., so my OGRE 0.14 is useless at this point.

How can I then use 3d in my applications?

Anybody got a compiled OGRE 0.11. exporter/converter available for download? Any working version is ok..... :}

I am new to programming and PureBasic, but starting to get the hang of it. Can someone please tell me when is the PureBasic update will be available?

Thanks in advance.........

We don't know when the Ogre update is planned, so I guess you'll have to wait until Fred gets home from vacation.. :roll:

Some rumours suggest the next update is a 3D engine overhaul!

i know when the 3d engine updates will be perfomed. Talked to fred, and he said there would be a lot of work on the 3d engine in beginning of september (next month). So i dont know if its going to be in the middle of september or in the end, but its going to happen.

But i dunno whats his present is going 2 be

Okay understood about the September upgrade, but what do I do right now to use 3d with PureBasic?

Anybody got a working version of OGRE exporter and converter to work with PureBasic now.?

Fred: Is this still 'true' with the new MacOSX release and all?

I would still very much like to see updated and more complete 3D commands.
