Hi there. I just got a simple mesh loading and drawing in my 3d program, by following the mesh example in the DX9 tutorials (with the tiger). I'm using the Pandasoft exporter to export my .X files, and I made a simple model with a couple different colors. If I open up this mesh in the DX model viewer, it looks normal, UNTIL I disable lighting. Then it shows up as solid white. And it does this in my program too. Sooo, what is the option that makes the colors show up when lighting is disabled? There are no bitmap resources or anything, just color materials. I guess I could eventually enable lighting, but I'd sure like to get this working. The tiger draws just fine with lighting off, in my program as well. Okay, thanks for any help!!
