@pspeed yes it does, but you have to set the UseVertexColor parameter to true.
Yessss!!! it works !!! I wish I could give you a 100 thumbs up!! thanks guys especially for having the patience as I am a VERY newbie.
It worked and I decided to have several batchNodes as having one big batchNode is loading everything. Can you update us whenever you implement that convenience mathod to find the batch geom from a specific geometry. I would definitely need that to have that feature.
thanks again
