MiniB3D Extended - Not loading textures?

BlitzMax Forums/MiniB3D Module/MiniB3D Extended - Not loading textures?

SystemError51(Posted 2012) [#1]
So I got klepto's MiniB3D extended remix from here.

For some reason, it does not seem to load any textures whatsoever. I'm not sure, either I'm completely stupid or the mod is broken.

Local cube:TMesh = CreateCube() 
ScaleEntity cube, 10, 10, 10 

Global cubetex:TTexture = LoadTexture("test.png")
EntityTexture cube, cubetex
EntityColor(cube, 255, 200, 0)


Also, EntityColor has no effect. The cube stays gray.

So either I'm doin it rong - or there really is an issue?


Cheers peeps

Are you using "Framework"? The only reason I can think of may be that the module does not import all the BRL pixmap loaders by default.

Try "Import BRL.PNGLoader"

Tried that just now... but had no effect.

Do the samples work for you? I think the "Shader_sample.bmx" example uses a textured mesh.

There's a sample with a mesh and shadow, which is textured, which is working fine. When I however adapt the code to a more simple one with just a cube, it's not working. This is weird all right.

Import klepto.minib3dextnew

Graphics3D(800,600,0,2)

Local cam:TCamera = CreateCamera()

Local obj:TMesh = CreateCube()
Local tex:TTexture = LoadTexture("YOUR_IMAGE_DOT_WHATEVER")

EntityTexture(obj, tex)
PositionEntity(obj, 0, 0, 10)
EntityColor(obj, 255,0,255)

While Not KeyHit(KEY_ESCAPE)
	Cls()
	
	RenderWorld()
	
	Flip(True)
Wend


Does this work for you?

Like I said before... using this approach is not working for some hideous reason

Definitely strange. That snippet shows a pink textured cube on my PC.

works fine for me.. might be helpful if you post your full code

It so turns out that there may have been a corrupted download or something, or whatever... I redownloaded the mod, recompiled, and now it's working =/ Who knows what happened.
