howto add a simple material to a node ?

[tft67]

I want to add a material to a existing node and change it's color ( ambient, diffuse, emissive, backface.. )
but didn't found how to make it ( no glsl ) ?
Any one can help ?

Code: Select all

for (irr::u32 i = 0; i < node->getMaterialCount(); ++i)
{
	irr::video::SMaterial& material = node->getMaterial(i);
	material.DiffuseColor = irr::video::SColor(255, 255, 0, 0);
}

node->getMaterial(i) return an existing material.

I need to create one and adding it to the node :
something like this :

irr::video::SMaterial newMaterial ;
// change the material
material.DiffuseColor = irr::video::SColor(255, 255, 0, 0);
maretial.SpecularColor...

node->addMaterial ( newMaterial ) ;

getMaterial returns a reference so if you assign it to that it will get changed. So you do like randomMesh proposed and just assign material = newMaterial; instead of just setting the DiffuseColor.

Ok.
so i can only change an existing material.
Thanks a lot.

Materials are copied from meshbuffers - one material per meshbuffer. So that is what you can set/change.
