Hi all,

I'm porting my card game to the new version of DarkGDK.NET but I've encountered a problem during the conversion of my limbs code.

I want to have a plain object attached to another plain object to create a card. With the previous version I used the GlueObject method but now I'm a bit confused about the new limbs methods because the limb class cannot be created and the AddLimb method of Object3D class needs a Mesh object but I want to attach two Object3D classes. How can I achieve this?

Yoda, if the Limb class is missing a specific constructor, I will add it. I did realize after reading your post that there is a specific constructor missing. For now, you can actually workaround this by using rhe IDs of the Object3D class and use the CDarkGDK.oDB3D functions to acheive your goal.

I'll fix this of course for the next version.

Paul.

Thanks for your hint!!

I also noticed that I can achieve this by accessing to the object main limb and using its GlueObject method...It works perfectly.

Dim sp as new Sphere(20.0F)
dim another as new Cylinder(20.0F)

sp.Limb(0).GlueObject(another)

This code works!!

Will this work?

sp.Limb(0).GlueObject(new Cylinder(20.0F))
