Trouble With MS3D Model

I am having trouble getting an MS3D Model to load as an IAnimatedMeshMS3D.
When I load my MS3D mesh as an IAnimatedMeshMS3D, I get an error about not being able to convert IAnimatedMesh to IAnimatedMeshMS3D.
Could the problem be the model or the code?

It would be your code,
you need to cast to IAnimatedMeshMS3D if you want the MS3d interface, but I can't see why you need it.

Yes, a type cast will do the trick...
But you don't need to load it as an IAnimatedMeshMS3D, you can use an IAnimatedMesh and Irrlicht should handle it as an MS3D mesh automatically...

getJointCount() / getMatrixOfJoint() or similar, which is why we really, really, really,
really need to move the skeleton/animation system to IAnimatedMesh or a new interface, and get rid of the file-format-specific APIs altogether to stop this evil before it spreads any further.
Code: Select all
IAnimatedMesh * shipMesh = smgr->getMesh("z1.ms3d");
if(shipMesh && shipMesh->getMeshType() == EAMT_MS3D)
{
IAnimatedMeshMS3D * actualMesh = static_cast<IAnimatedMeshMS3D*>(shipMesh);
for(int joint = 0; joint < actualMesh->getJointCount(); ++joint)
{
matrix4 * matrix = actualMesh->getMatrixOfJoint(joint, 0);
....
}
}
