mesh file not loading

[ChebbyShabby]

i'm using the latest version of pb and (i think) i'm using the latest lwo2mesh converter (i use lightwave). however, whenever i load a home-made mesh in PB, it tells me that the mesh can't be initialised. whatt do i do?

First, you post here small snippet of code which shows the problem

Posting the mesh may help too as not all converters convert properly.

sorry about that. here is the code:

Code: Select all

InitEngine3D()
InitSprite()

Add3DArchive("Data"           , #PB_3DArchive_FileSystem)

If OpenScreen(640, 480, 32, "")
  InitKeyboard()
  
  LoadMesh (0, "TEST.mesh")
  
  CreateCamera(0, 0, 0, 640, 480)
  CreateEntity(0, MeshID(0), 0)
  
  Repeat
      ClearScreen(RGB(0, 0, 0))
      ExamineKeyboard()
      ;*****
      
      
      RenderWorld()
      FlipBuffers()
  Until KeyboardPushed(#PB_Key_Escape) Or Quit = 1
EndIf
End

i'll post the mesh file in a sec.

.mesh is no standartized format.
even with different versions of OGRE there were different formats of .mesh

e.g. for the 1.0.6 in PB 4.0 - 4.2, you needed the older mesh-importer from the OGRE homepage...

the new version is 1.6.0

have a look on the OGRE homepage (don't have the sublink at hand now)
if you find the OGRE commandline tool for 1.6.0, and if it's capable of importing .lwo, I guess is should.

Camera dimensions are in pourcents...

I've done several examples showing how to load meshes, and so on. I'm using lightwave too, with the nice lwo2ogre plugin. See there for the ogre post about the plugin : https://www.ogre3d.org/forums/viewtopic ... &start=150
