And another brave programmer who tries to improve Ben's script

Just browsed the source and it looks interesting.
I hope this will eventually solve some more issues on .x .
Giving it a try tonight!

Hi there !

I've tried the exporter and... It works !

Thanks a lot for this precious tool !

But I have 2 questions

1) Why is my object rotated ? (its a tree and when exported, it is lying on the ground, not standing)
2) I get this error in irrlicht :

Code: Select all

Unknown data object in x file: AnimTicksPerSecond

If someone can help... ?

Thank you, have a great evening !

You most likely forgot to switch the up-axis to "Y is up" (there is a button in the exporter's interface).

As to your second question I'm not sure since i rarely use animation. Try to play around with the methods for different ways to export your animation.
If it still does not work, feel free to contact me (pm or visit irc) and let me have a try with your file.

Cheers,

You can get rid of this warning by deselecting the <Speed> button in the script window.

In general this is a great modification of the export-script. Thanks for the link afecelis.

I have found 2 problems in the script's use.
1 - I could not use the <Anim> button at first. Apparently no 3d windows found. Even when I have four 3d windows active. This was easily fixed by changing line 229 to: >=0

2 - Second problem was an error when loading an .x file in irrlicht:
Unknown data object in material list in x file: ;;
At the end of the MeshMaterialList there is one semicolon to much.
I fixed this by changing lines 1018 and 1020. Remove one of the semicolon's.
