Texture coordinate in CStaticMeshOBJ.cpp

[loonychewy]

I was looking at CStaticMeshOBJ when I noticed this (line 195)

Code: Select all

v.TCoords.Y = -textureCoordBuffer[ facePoints[i][1]-1].Y;

Notice the negation operator. Is it suppose to be there?
With the .obj model I'm using to test, it looks wrong, but after removing the negation operator, the model looks correct.

The negation is to compensate for Maya's coordinate system being inverted relative to Irrlicht's, if you used some other program other than Maya to generate your OBJ file then it may not look right.

It's more about the OBJ file format being in a different coordinate system, as Blender and others export it inverted correctly.
