Hi all,
I’ve created a simple 8x5x3 tile with bevelled edges in Blender, and exported to 3ds format. I load the model into my test app, and create a sphere as a test object as well. I set both objects to have a green emissive material, and put a red light in the scene. The sphere then looks correct – green, with red on top – but the tile is gray with white on top. What am I doing wrong? Is there something wrong with the Blender file? The code?
Here is the original Blender file, and here is the exported 3ds file. I’ve placed the 3ds file in the test directory where the below class file lives. And finally, here’s the complete source code for my test app:
(P.S. I am a N00B, so please be gentle. My application is trying to be a Japanese language learning game!)
