About getting a list of objects from TorqueObjectDatabase

#1 Yes, you can use the templated method FindObjects

ex :
List objects = TorqueObjectDatabase.Instance.FindObjects();
give you the list of all registered T2DSceneObject.

#2 Does that mean I can also get a list of materials via this method as well???

#3 Err.... it doesn't work for me. TorqueObjectDatabase does not have FindObjects<>() method. It only has a FindObject() method which return a single object.

#4 I use the 1.5 beta, the templated method might be new.

#5 So only 1.5 beta supports it? hmm..... because I am currently working on my school project and I am using an earlier version of Torque X. Might be too late for me to move over to 1.5 beta... any other way besides using 1.5 beta??

#6 Just checked and you can use the Edwin's approach to find a list materials. Just be sure to include the Materials namespace at the top of your code: using GarageGames.Torque.Materials; . Then, you can do something like this:

List<SimpleMaterial> materials = new List<SimpleMaterial>();
TorqueObjectDatabase.Instance.FindObjects<SimpleMaterial>(ref materials);

Now, your "materials" list will be filled with all of the materials that are registered with the object database.
