[SOLVED] where is getNormal?

[cinetec_tech]

hi I saw the getNormal is removed from the objectmeshdynamic. So how to workaround to get the normal? 

thanks

Hi,

 

According to the migration guide you should use quat getTangent() instead.

hi Silent:

    Could you send me a sample how to use getTangent for the normal?

also any reason remove the getnormal?

Hi,

You can use the following piece of code as an example:
 

forloop(int i = 0; mesh.getNumVertex()) {
   quat q = mesh.getTangent(i);
   log.message("%s\n",typeinfo(q.normal));
  }

 
Also, we'll add getNormal function in future releases.

Is that possible to do setNormal as well?

Hi,

 

According to the Migration guide setNormal() was replaced with setTangent().

 

Thanks!

yes. i know the setTangent function. Could you send me a sample how to convert a normal to tangent so I could use setTangent in my case? I only know the normal the vertex.

thanks
