In the OSG OpenFlight plugin these names are ignored when reading, and
empty strings are written.
As we need these names in the OSG scene graph by our application, I
changed the plugin code, so the names are now stored in class
"osg::Material" (derived from "osg::Object") by
material->setName();
(see "PaletteRecords.cpp, line 195) when reading the file, and written
to file by
dos.writeString( m.Material->getName(), 12 );
(see MaterialPaletteManager.cpp, line 80).
As these names otherwise get lost when reading an OpenFlight file and
writing it again e.g. by
osgconv example.flt converted_example.flt
these changes make the plugin more complete.
The changes were made to OSG revision 8425, and were tested by
osgconv example.flt converted_example.flt
comparing the material palettes of both files inside Multigen Creator."
* Support for Vec4ubArray for color data
* Support for material transparency
Thanks to Neil Hughes, Jason Daly, yourself, and others for testing and reporting issues."
Changes to existing files:
ReaderWriter.cpp -- to support writeNode() of course.
ReaderWriterATTR.cpp -- to support writeObject -- we write .attr files for textures, if they don't already exist.
AttrData.cpp/.h -- Minor fixes.
CMakeLists.txt -- to include the new files in the build."
From Robert Osfield, port to non Windows platforms just required fixing of header capitilization errors
that windows lets through the net due to having a case insensitive file system.
