Member JamesH Posted October 1, 2008 Author Member Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 bizarre...still won't show up with Alpha18 (doesn't initiate in log.txt either).I'm running XP SP2 (32-bit) and here's where I've got the .dll: I've got an old build of the Alpha that it doesn't show up in, I'll get the latest version and have a look. Does it work with 2.10.10 ? If not, can you also try disabling your virus scanner when running 3DC (wild stab in the dark, but the scanner could be scanning the .dll as it's loaded and locking it).

Advanced Member wailingmonkey Posted October 1, 2008 Advanced Member Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 doesn't run with 2.10.10 either (and no-show in log.txt). no virus scanner when running 3dc, so that doesn't appear to be it either... I'll try it on my laptop with 3.0 alpha in a bit, but won't be able to check back in till later this evening. Seems really strange that it's not being picked up by Windows as an optional pulldown (since you can see I haven't bungled placing the .dll in the appropriate folder ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andrew, have you got an idea on the problem ? EDIT : Andrew would the VS2005 Redistributable Package be needed ? I don't know about this, but the common denominator on both my machines is VS2005 - only a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advanced Member wailingmonkey Posted October 1, 2008 Advanced Member Report Share Posted October 1, 2008 just to make sure I could operate with .dae, I took my test object I gave you into Ultimate Unwrap 3d and saved it out as .dae ... and then re-imported it back into UU3d as .dae (and it retained all properties of its original .obj format) I'm outta ideas too, sadly ... hopefully others won't run into this problem if they need .dae <shrugs> *edit* Just installed the 2005 visual c++ redistributable and re-booted, but still no-go for both 2.10.10 or 3.0alpha18 .... pulldown option on export just shows .lwo and .obj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew Shpagin Posted October 2, 2008 Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 I have looked dll's contence and it refers to MSVCP90.dll MSVCR90.dll It seems DLL is compiled and MFC libraries are not linked statically. JamesH, please check it in options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesH, please check it in options. Not really knowing too much about this topic, I recompiled using the /MT option and checked the .dll with DependencyWalker and it seems to be ok now - is there anything more for me to do ? I've uploaded a new build. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have checked - it does not depends on VS DLL-s now. It is interesting, have you succeed with normalmap exporting and rendereing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member JamesH Posted October 2, 2008 Author Member Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 I have checked - it does not depends on VS DLL-s now.It is interesting, have you succeed with normalmap exporting and rendereing? To be honest the only package I have that can display the normal maps is C4 and the normal map imports fine into it, I used the <bump> element tag to identify the normal map texture. Although that tag isn't listed in the COLLADA spec and after going through a lot of the COLLADA examples it's a bit vague on identifying what the normal map references need to be. Each package seems to use a slightly different way to identify actual textures. I'm going to have a look this weekend and maybe post on the COLLADA forums so that I can get a definitive answer.

Member JamesH Posted October 2, 2008 Author Member Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 In fact the bump extension is not supported by 1.4.1 or 1.5 and is discussed here, but it has been added as part of the Max extensions in the COLLADAMAx exporter from FeelingSoft, discussed here.

Advanced Member wailingmonkey Posted October 2, 2008 Advanced Member Report Share Posted October 2, 2008 thanks Andrew and JamesH, the dependence on those MSVC .dll seems to have been the issue. I'm now able to see the .dae option (and consequently export, woohoo!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Member Steve C Posted June 25, 2009 Member Report Share Posted June 25, 2009 Just saw this thread. Was that model exported into the Serious Sam editor. I used to do all sorts of things with that. Anyway Looks good hopefully the plugin will be ready for 3.0 soon. I use Softimage and it supports Collada Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
