Hi there,

Looks like multi-texturing support (with multiple UVs) is not supported in 4.0.9. Will it be in 4.1?

Thanks,

4.0 and 4.1 do support multiple materials. but this is something that you need to build yourself as parsers are not supporting multiple materials per mesh yet.

Hi Fabrice

Are you planning to expand the current awd2 parser/format, so it will support multiple-materials per mesh?

At some point in time of course. But draft for awd2.1 & parsers updates must be done first…

Wow, I didn’t know we could do multiple materials with 4.0. Last time I looked at the docs I couldn’t find a way to set multiple UV’s for a mesh. do I need to do it with AGAL or it’s supported within Away3D? say I want to blend 2 materials (with different UV scales) on a PlaneGeometry.

hi

as far as i can tell, one Mehs can have max. 2 different UVs set.
(the SubGeometry.as defines a uvBuffer and a secondaryUvBuffer)

I dont know how to tell a Material to use the secondaryUvBuffer, but i believe this multi-texture-feature works more in a way that you can use multiple Materials with the same set of UVs (still very powerfull for texturing).

this is one of the times i would like to be wrong

can anyone confirm my statement above ?

some more informations about multitextures would be very helpfull.
