Hi everybody. I am creating a 3d scene totally in LINGO but im a bit stupid with 3d Definitions... I'll explain.
I know that I must create a mesh (meshResource) and then use this to create a model. I have a model exported from lightwave, a head in fact. I know it has about 3 surfaces. Say 1. Skin 2. Teeth 3. Eye So I know I need to attach a different shader to each, that I can do. The problem is I thought I could create 3 meshes and then add each mesh to the ONE model. Ie Mesh1 = newMesh("from skin data") Mesh2 = newMesh("from teeth data") Mesh3 = newMesh("from eye data") buildMesh etc... Model1 = Scene.newModel(Mesh1) Scene.addMesh(Model1 , mesh2) Scene.addMesh(Model1 , mesh3) Thus I have 3 surfaces in my model. But I cant see a way to do this and it wouldn't give me 3 surfaces/shaders anyway would it? In director would I have to comprise this ONE lightwave scene as 3 separate MODELS. Ie Mesh1 = newMesh("from skin data") Buildmesh(mesh1) Model1 = Scene.newModel(Mesh1) Mesh2 = newMesh("from teeth data") Buildmesh(mesh2) Model2 = Scene.newModel(Mesh2) Etc for mesh 3... Thus seperating my 1 model into 3 models? Im a but new to this so I think I have maybe missed something here as this seems a bit odd. Any ideas folks?
