Hi All, Nathan posted some changes to the dae plugin back at the end of March and at the end of last week I did a review but as I'm not a COLLADA expert, or regularly use the format I don't feel in a good place knowledge wise to make a judgment call what is the best default. In general I'm inclined to not change defaults because typically those defaults have ended up what the original contributors to the plugin have found works well for their data, and if we change it then we might fix some data for some users but break it for others. However, if there is a bug and it breaks all models then it's a no brainer.
Rather than just dive in and merge Nathan's changes and hope for the best I feel it's appropriate to call for a general discussion about it and let the COLLADA users/contributors review Nathan's changes and make recommendations on what to merge/what to change. Thanks, Robert. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Nathan Jones Date: 28 March 2013 18:41 Subject: [osg-submissions] DAE plugin update To: [email protected] We ran into an issue with using OSG to convert between file formats. daeReader knows about and understands "usePredefinedTextureUnits" and "useSequencedTextureUnits" but other writers did not (e.g. 3DS and VRML look at texture unit 0). Furthermore, it looks (by examination and experimentation) that the use of daeReader::Options::usePredefinedTextureUnits in daeReader.cpp was inconsistent. There were some instances where the MAIN_TEXTURE unit expecting the sequenced unit to be at position 0 and some expected it to be at position 1. Since the other exporters expect it to be at position 0, I made it always read/write at position 0 if the user specifies useSequencedTextureUnits. I tested using several collada files from different vendors (Google, BAE, etc.) and tested observable behaviors using osgviewer and osgconv. _______________________________________________ osg-submissions mailing list [email protected] http://lists.openscenegraph.org/listinfo.cgi/osg-submissions-openscenegraph.org
