Week 4 Report

'What I did

  • Attempt to render two animated tentacle models
    • Found a bug with XAnimator!! It's a skinning bug, I think. Because it tries to re-use mesh data for different models with the same filename, it renders all of the animated tentacles in the same spot. This happens only with skeletal animated models (so, for instance, our bouncing ball is fine).
    • Possible options:
  1. Re-name all instances of the model filename, so XAnimator reloads the mesh data (how inefficient would this be?)
  2. Use another library for loading models, ex. DarkGDK
  3. Have Justina not do skeletal animation
