Show Tool?

by Hugues Huygens · in Artist Corner · 04/26/2005 (5:29 pm) · 2 replies

I feel stupid asking this, but I just can't figure it out!

How can I view my exported DTS file with the torqueDemo.exe using the command line parameter -show [file.dts]?

I tried it like this:
C:\Torque\SDK\example\torqueDemo -show simpleshape.dts

But I got a black screen with buttons like 'load shape' etc...
I tried the button 'load shape', but didn't find my shape in the dialogue list.

My dts-file and texture are in the same directory (C:\Torque\SDK\example\)

So I tried the demo version of ShowTool Pro and it worked just fine!
What did I do wrong with the command line parameter?

Thanx!

Try putting your 3D model under starter.fps/data

not entirely sure, but it might not load it from example

Thanx Matthew! It worked.

But I need to load the shape by using the 'Load shape' button.
The command line parameter is not loading the shape.
So it makes no difference when I specify the dts-file or I don't specify it.
Is this feature not working or is there something else I need to do?
