• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Problem loading a Blender exported .X file

  I've been searching these forums and on Google looking for a solution to my problem but have yet to find an answer. I have created a simple model in Blender and now I want to load it into XNA. From within Blender I use the DirectX exporter which creates a .X text file (not binary). I then add that to my XNA project (essentially just following the first 3D tutorial in the XNA help). However, upon trying to compile and run the program I get the error message "Could not read the X file. The file is corrupt or invalid. Error code: D3DXFERR_BADFILETYPE". I have tried a number of different combinations with the exporting settings in Blender, but I always get the same result. I found a tutorial on the web that had a .X file for download ...Show All

  I wonder if it is possible to activate the day to night feature and if possible how. In the mission fit file you can implement a daytonighttime; for example: f DayToNightTime = 54000.000000 This value is (as it seems) picked up by camera.cpp result = cameraFile->readIdFloat("DayToNightTime",day2NightTransitionTime); I played around withit but can not see any effect in missions. Any idea what the value needs to be, how it can be activated, if it can be acticvated at all It works. Great.
