Texture correction

Hi again. I have (yet another) problem... and I can find no way to fix it in the documentation. Alright....a little background. I exported a *.x file with a texture from 3ds Max, and I got it imported and set up into my program...but when I run the program, the texture is all morphed and not straight as it should be. This same thing happens in 3ds max in the perspective viewport until you turn on a texture correction option. I was wondering if there was such a thing for Irrlicht...oh ya, here is the code that I'm using for the model:

Code: Select all

IAnimatedMesh* mesh = smgr->getMesh("crate.x");
IAnimatedMeshSceneNode* node = smgr->addAnimatedMeshSceneNode( mesh );
if (node)
{
  	node->setMaterialFlag(EMF_LIGHTING, false);
  	node->setFrameLoop(0, 1);	
}

convert the model back into an editable poly after appling the uvmapping or texture correction then reexport

I tried that already after reading a tutorial, but the texture was still distorted...

hmm... then I am not sure what to tell you. I have always had no problems with textures loading, well at leat not after the model was loaded or the texture was loaded in some way.

Ohh I just thought of one problem I did have. Is you model more that one object in Max? I have had sooo many problems unless the model is only one item. What I have found is that you model needs to me one editiable poly not just grouped together.
