[SOLVED] Update Normals trouble

[anthony.liot]

Hi,

I using the new function updateNormals, but the result are not working like the Smooth Mesh inside the ResourceEditor_x64.

 

Model 3D :

 

Mesh generated without normals : https://www.dropbox.com/s/fpwzdi6ohzhmhdt/model.mesh

Mesh generated with updateNormal(45) before save : https://www.dropbox.com/s/fc7on1daj4npfvi/model_norm.mesh

 

Pictures : 

Mesh Dynamic generated with updateNormals(45)

Same Mesh after SmoothMesh(45)

Could be a trouble inside my model generated, but this same code was working on the previous SDK

Hi,

I have also an artefact when I render my 3D model, but seems not related to the updateNormals, but may be ...

Hello Tony,

Sorry for the late reply, this issue was passed to our devs.

Thanks for the information and sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi Tony,

 

updateNormals() function was removed from script, but you can smooth mesh from script doing the following:

- get mesh from ObjectMeshDynamic using getMesh() function.
- use the following functions from Mesh class:
    createNormals()
    createTangents() 


In this case there should be no differences between smooth in MeshViewer and smooth from script.
