Problem with LOD and exporter/importer

Troubleshooting General Help
1

Hi,



I am having issue with LOD and exporter.

I have tried the embeded ogre exporter in jme but it does not seems to save lod details and I keep getting

java.lang.IllegalStateException: LOD levels are not set on this mesh



even if I have lod in the xml.



If I load from XML all is fine.

If I save and relaod right after boom



here is log that shows that we are loosing loddetail. (probably because I am doing something wrong but cannot figure what)

here is the code to reproduce the boom

geo.addControl(new LodControl());

// fis.close();



rootNode.attachChild(ogreModelReloaded);

} catch (IOException ex){

ex.printStackTrace();

}

}

}[/java]

Hi,



I looked into Mesh class

and noticed that

the member

private VertexBuffer[] lodLevels;

is not saved nor restored, which could explain the loose of the lod when we save export it.

is it on purpose? or am I doing something wrong?

All sample of LOD are provided with xml, not j3o format therefore I am not sure if what I try to do is correct.
