Load models with textures
Posted Friday, 22 October, 2010 - 11:28 by Arxae inHello, i decided to use opentk for my (small) 3d needs :) since it had the feature i needed (usable as control on a form) in a easy way.
Now the thing is, i need to load a simple 3d model (obj, but can be converted) with its textures. The model in this case is just exported from sketchup (nothing fancy)
The problem is, i don't know how :(
I looked around and i found the meshomatic project. I think i am able to load the mesh correctly (no errors) here is the code for it that i used:
ObjLoader loader = new ObjLoader(); MeshData mesh = loader.LoadFile("test.obj");
This is done in the form load event.
The question is, how do i draw it? I am just in the testing phase atm. I followed the first drawing tutorial and it works. So the project is setup correctly.
But the tutorial just drew a 2d triangle directly :) and loading a 3d file is really different i think.
So is anyone able to help or explain me how to do it?
Thanks in advance :D

I'm interested too to know how I can display multiple objects (.obj exported from Sketchup).
Re: Load models with textures
May be in your RenderFrame function:
you should call loader.Render();
