I''ve downloaded OpenFX and had a quick play around. It seems ok. I created a simple object and added a texture (image map). I exported the object to a .3ds file and then used the util that comes with the DirectX sdk to convert it to a .x file. When I loaded it up into my program there was no texture. I tried loading the the .3ds file back into OpenFX and the texture had disappeared! So, I guess my question is, has anyone used OpenFX to create objects for their DirectX app (with textures)? If so, how did you do it? Thanks in advance Andy ----------------------------- Andy Pike DirectX 8 Tutorials: www.andypike.com
