What model are you using?

I’m using a simple Model of a (green) Sphere with a (yellow) 4-sided pyramid on it which I made with the Windows App 3D Builder. If I wasn’t too stupid to put the model with this post, I’d do it, but it’s just a “test.obj” with a “test.mtl”, so nothing special.

3D Builder and 3D Paint open it without trouble, so it’s not the model.

Thanks for the reply :)

Try using blender or maya to create the model or get one from online.

Ok, now I did one with blender (a cube with a cone which is surrounded by a torus), the program doesn’t crash (I don’t know why it does’nt crash now) but the model isn’t shown in the 3D space.

Any errors/warnings?

Errors: None
Warnings: Only those “double in GLfloat (or similar): possible Data loss” warnings.

Try the model I used.

I built it again with Blender (from the attached .blend file), doesn’t show up either (no Errors / Warnings).
I tried to attach my project, but I don’t know if it worked :) If not, please tell me how to do it, because I don’t get what to put into the link field :D

Excuse me for being so irritated 

Have you tried the example code from GitHub?

OK, Now I’m confused. I copied the example code more than enough times (like three or four times) and never did it work…
NOW, It works, but everything above the waist and hands is black. (Yes, I’ve downloaded every texture.) I’m really confused now…
My CubeConeTorus is also just black (There is a fitting .mtl file).

(I swear I used the code from GitHub multiple times...)

Any errors/warnings?

Nope. No errors, no important warnings. (again only double in float conversion stuff)

You try the model from the GitHub page?

Yeah, like I said, above the waist and hands, everything is black. Below that, the colour is normal.

This is weird, what are the versions of everything are you using?

glew-2.1.0
glfw-3.2.1
glm-0.9.9.0
latest SOIL2
assimp-4.1.0

Actually everything should be the latest stuff.
I created a GitHub repositrory and put my project inside, so you can look if there’s something wrong.

Did every other tutorial work fine?

Yes. Otherwise, I would’ve stopped at a tutorial where it didn’t work anymore and tried to solve that :)

By the way, I noticed that in Blender, the model doesn’t have any textures. (The .blend file is in the same folder as the textures)
I don’t know if this is an issue :/

I also tried to load it with OpenGL 3D Model Viewer and it doesn’t look normal at all. More like ripped.

It would be, try a model that you definitely knows has correct textures applied.

Okay, did a sphere in Blender (with a rainbow texture), saved it as .obj with a .mtl file. The texture is in the same folder.
Still black.
Tried to add directional light again (thought it didn’t show because it’s dark).
Nothing happens. (No errors, could of course be that I did something wrong so the light doesn’t work)

 

Try going through all the tutorials again and using the source code provided, as you said it could be an issue related to another part of the application.

Hey, 
I went through the whole series again with no issues at any point.
For the grand final, I let the different lights on from tutorial 14 I think (where all lights are combined), downloaded the model with textures and everything again, built it again with Blender aaaaaaaannnnnnddddddddddd…

The head and torso are still black, but now, the Arms and shoulders load properly xD
I put a screenshot of this at https://github.com/Agnasius/MyOpenGLStuff/tree/master/openGLGraphics, called nanosuit.PNG.

Great to hear it works now.
