Hi,
I’m just starting on android programming and still very early in the learning process, so i would like to ask, is it possible to load a 3ds model with a AnimationObject3d class? I’ve tried with Object3dContainer and it loads fine, but when i tried it with AnimationObject3d, i keep getting a null pointer exception.

Thanks.

Hi Kiran,
There’s a limitation to the size of the objects that you can use. How many vertices are in the model?

I can also run the example and small sized(50kb) 3ds objects exported from blender. But when I try to load 500kb 3ds file, there is a crash. I would appreciate some help, thank you.

Hi,

Just passing by as I am interested in getting in to Android 3D graphics for game development and did wonder about whether somebody had done this. I am glad they have. Nice work. Any details on framerate on an HTC Desire handset with Froyo 2.2 or later?

Anyway, exporting 3DS Max models has a lot of options and is very version dependent. It is critical to know the version used for this demo and its default settings for saving .3ds models. Then we can apply these settings to whatever version of 3DS Max we’re using and it should work – providing we are using the same version or later.

I’ve downloaded and am able to run the example just fine – but when I try to export a very simple model (as either obj or 3ds) it crashes for me. Do you have any more specifics about how to export the model properly in 3DS Max 2010?

Just FYI – it compiles fine, it just crashes when it tries to load my model as opposed to yours. I also tried with uv coordinates and without – but it made no apparent difference.

I’d appreciate any help you might be able to offer.

Thanks!

The following wouldn’t work for me, because the parsing was involved

ExampleKeyframeAnimation
ExampleLoad3DSFile
ExampleLoadMD2File
ExampleLoadObjFile
ExampleLoadObjFileMultiple
SplashActivity

Help! I am getting a Rescourses$NotFoundException when debugging ExampleLoadObjFile and ExampleKeyframeAnimation at the line that reads “parse.parse();” I have no idea why this is happening.
