DirectX File Imports?

Is there a way to import DirectX files into XAML? Old examples I fund on the
web (Mash3D) do not work in the latest release.

RE: DirectX File Imports?

A workaround solution can be to import a DirectX file into 3D modeling
application and export the mesh into 3ds file. Than you can use Reader3ds
class (can be downloaded freely from www.ab3d.si) and import the objects from
3ds file directly into your WPF application.

For simple 3D objects an online converter from 3ds to xaml can also be used
(also on www.ab3d.si) - than you just paste the xaml from the converter into
your xaml file.

On the same site there is also a list of free 3D modeling application.

Re: DirectX File Imports?

You'll need to have at least DirectX 9.0c installed.

We usually package this in with Aurora, eventually it will intergrated but
there are some issues with having DirectX and WinFX loaded in the same app.
There might also be some precision errors with UV coordinates, I havent had
time to look into it.

Re: DirectX File Imports?

I am sorry, you lost me. Does it mean I can do a streight import of the
DirectX file? and if so how?

Re: DirectX File Imports?

There was an attached exe that will take a mesh and generate a Xaml file
with your mesh inside, usually :P If you didnt see the exe email me directly
and I'll get one to you.

Re: DirectX File Imports?

Jason,

I tried to send a message directly to you but it failed. I haven't seen any
attachments; could you email it to me, please.

Thanks,
Roman
