My OBJs are completely white :(

[codebox]

Hi everyone.. i m a noob..

I am new to Irrlicht but not to programming.

I followed few tutorials and got to learn a few things. Now when i export my Blender models to OBJ format and load them in Irrlicht, i get a completely white object no matter if the mesh is UV-mapped or with a plain color shader. this happens with every mesh I take in Irrlicht.

I also loaded my models in MeshViewer application that comes with Irrlicht but got the same result, the mesh was completely white with the terrain in the background.

I am wondering if this is problem with Blender's ability or something. since i searched some threads here, people seem to get Blender to export correctly and perhaps its only me

please help. Here is the code of my file:

Code: Select all

#include <irrlicht.h>

using namespace irr;

IrrlichtDevice* device = 0; 

int main()
{  
    device = createDevice(video::EDT_OPENGL, core::dimension2d<s32>(640, 480), 16, false, false, false);
    
    video::IVideoDriver* driver = device->getVideoDriver();
    scene::ISceneManager* smgr = device->getSceneManager();
          
    scene::IAnimatedMeshSceneNode* mynode = smgr->addAnimatedMeshSceneNode(smgr->getMesh("ship.obj"));
    mynode->setPosition(core::vector3df(0,0,10));   
    mynode->setMaterialFlag(video::EMF_LIGHTING, false);
    
    smgr->addCameraSceneNodeFPS(0, 100.0f, 100.0f);
    device->getCursorControl()->setVisible(false); 
    
    while(device->run())
    {
       driver->beginScene(true, true, video::SColor(155,155,155,155));
       smgr->drawAll();
       driver->endScene();
    }

    device->drop();
    return 0;
}

Can any1 tell me what am i missing

i can put up the OBJ mesh if required.

Thanks a lot.
Kamran.

IAnimatedMesh* gMesh = m_mgr->getMesh("assets\\airpanel_mod.obj");
IAnimatedMeshSceneNode* gNode = m_mgr->addAnimatedMeshSceneNode(gMesh);
gNode->setMaterialFlag(video::EMF_LIGHTING, false);
gNode->setMaterialTexture(0, m_driver->getTexture("assets\\pground2.jpg"));


Obj files do not automattically go find their textures. Some of the other loaders do. such as .X or MD2. That means you have to set the texture yourself.

thanx a lot dhenton that worked! Irr rules..
