Hi;
I have 3 simple meshes I merged using the Merge Polygon Data Compound. In the help file, it seems that it is as easy as 123 to merge the materials using a Merge Material IDs compound and then a Set Materials from Library compound to set the materials. Yet, in my case that just doesn't work and I get errors in my ICE tree evaluation. In the documentation it says "This works only if all objects use the same Materials attribute value." What on earth does that mean?
Thanx
AJ
ICE Modeling Problem: Merging Material ID's
Re: ICE Modeling Problem: Merging Material ID's
Oh my... No answers?
Re: ICE Modeling Problem: Merging Material ID's
The Materials attribute is an array of text strings that tells the renderer which materials to use for which MaterialID. Now if you're going to merge MaterialIDs then the Materials array must be the same, otherwise MaterialID=1 might be, e.g., blue on one object and green on the other.
In your case, it looks like Materials is undefined.

Thanx Graham... But, how do I adjust that? What do I need to do?

This topic should explain it:

It sounds to me like you are using regular (non-ICE) material assignments. You need to convert those to ICE-based material assignments.

Hi, for me too, at start it was pretty hard to interpret...
