Do you have to use .egg?

Adr1 · October 12, 2005, 2:02am

Hi,I am new to this programe and didnt see it in the help thing. I’m having some problems with rendering my scenery. I got a scenery but not in the format .egg its in .x will when I run the code it tells me theres a error with the line with the code telling it to render. I could have been doing this wrong tooXD but I think its right.
Code
import direct.directbase.DirectStart
environ = loader.loadModel(‘town’)
environ.reparentTo(render)
run()

You can load an .x file (Panda will convert it on-the-fly). But you will have to give the full filename with extension, e.g.:


environ = loader.loadModel('town.x')

As a simpler test, see if you can run the command:


pview town.x

If that works, then you should be able to load it up in Python.

See this thread:

https://discourse.panda3d.org/viewtopic.php?t=38

For someone with a similar problem. The solution is to open the .x file with a text editor, and do a global search-and-replace from “TextureFileName” to “TextureFilename”.

Wow, does your material name really have a space in it, and is that really legal in X format?

Try replacing “Wall 8” with “Wall8”.
