Horde3D

I was playing a little bit with horde3D when I tried to change the material of the knight. I tried to change the material of the knight helmet, in the example, and I found that the rest of the knight was invisible when Ive started the program. Then, the rest of the body became visible only if I get DONT look at the knight. And the animation of this part of the knight is working only while i'm not looking at the knight.

Heres some screens:


First, When I start the application, only the helmet is visible:



And, if I dont look the knight, the body appear and became visible but without animation( While I'm not looking at the knight ):

I just changed the material of the helmet and didn't encounter any problems.

What shader are you using for the helmet?

I'm using this one: "skinning.shader.xml"

The material script is:



"rouge.tga" is a single red pixel.

Ive just uploaded an example of this problem:

The code used in this example is exactly the same code that came with the horde sdk. Ive juste changed the helmet material.

Thanks for the sample!

It helped me greatly to reproduce and quickly track the problem. It really was a bug in Horde, but actually the solution is quite simple:

Find the line

in Renderer::drawMeshes (egRenderer.cpp) and replace it by

That's it.

Thanks again for revealing this problem
