Hi,
now I am trying to add a material to my scene.
BaseMaterial * mat = BaseMaterial::Alloc(type);
My problem is that the sdk does not give an explanation of "type" constants for the Material alloc method. Can anyone tell me what I have to fill in there? When I insert a 0 Cinema crashes afterwards when adding Information such as using setname etc.
thank you -

The constants are just the material IDs. There are a few defined in ge_prepass:
// materials #define Mbase 5702 #define Mmaterial 5703 #define Mplugin 5705 #define Mfog 8803 #define Mterrain 8808 #define Mdanel 1011117 #define Mbanji 1011118 #define Mbanzi 1011119 #define Mcheen 1011120 #define Mmabel 1011121 #define Mnukei 1011122 -

Hi,
okay that worked but now for the next problem:
TextureTag * tag = static_cast<TextureTag*>-(object->MakeTag(Ttexture, NULL));
tag->SetMaterial(mat);
tag->SetName("Set by GroImp");
EventAdd(EVENT_FORCEREDRAW);
assuming everything with the object and material went ok. So why does my Object that I assigned the tag to get invisible? Furthermore I cannot see the Tag in the Object browser...
Any idea?
Thank you... -

Hi,
I think, you must at first insert the material into the active document.
(e.g. GetActiveDocument()->InsertMaterial( mat ); )
