Ogre 3D 1.7

Time for action — preparing the scene

We are going to use the last example from the previous chapter:

1. Remove the line that changes the material of the model. We want it to use its original material:

   ent->setMaterial(Ogre::MaterialManager::getSingleton().getByName("MyMaterial18"));
   

2. The application class should now look like this:

   class Example69 : public ExampleApplication
   {
   private:
   public:
   void createScene()
   {
   Ogre::SceneNode* node = mSceneMgr->getRootSceneNode()->createChildSceneNode("Node1",Ogre::Vector3(0,0,450));
   Ogre::Entity* ent = mSceneMgr->createEntity("Entity1","Sinbad.mesh");
   node->attachObject(ent);
   }
   };
   

3. Compile and run the application. You should see an instance of Sinbad rendered with its normal material.
