.x load textures

[misterface]

hi,

I importerted my .X scene in irrlicht:
mesh = smgr->getMesh("c:/xfiles/23copy.X")

so far so good!

but how do you load the textures? is there a method to to that?

thx

read the tutorial about how to load textures. if you assigned textures to the model (the .x file itself), they should be loaded automatically if they are in the same folder as the .x file

ps: "C:/xfiles/23copy.X" is bad, why not place the files in the project folder and load them with "data/media/models/23copy.x" for example? is much more organized

i get following message
"unknown syntax while reading texture filename string in x file"

The texture filename part of the .x file should be of this form:

TextureFilename {
"Textures/Brickwall.jpg";
}

I don't think it allows you to have any spaces in it, so "brick wall.jpg" would not be allowed

also, make sure your .X file is either in binary or ascii form, Irrlicht only works with one, can't remember which one. And make sure your textures are in the folder as the model.

Works with text .x files
