kind request to Danimal

I have send an email to Danimal, but I suppose it's stuck in the spam folder, so here's once more of what I am asking :

I am working now on OpenDungeons in my private repository; so far I added many new features ; for example the geometry distortions based on PerlinNoise + new lava + new gold. Please have a look : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CWh3iH0p4uU I am slowly going away from the ogre material system to custom shaders written by hand in GLSL, and here is the problem : your ChickenCoop mesh doesn't have a verticies' tangents defined .... Could you send me a new one with the tangents defined and/or add it to Opendungeons model repository.
Please write what you think ....
best regards paul424

Your distortion effect looks pretty nice overall, reminds me of Dungeon Keeper. Im not sure i still have that 3d model, waht do you mean by tangents defined ?

Heh how do I explain that to you : normal vectors are perpendicular to the surface ( and could be defined in two ways at least in ogre) , and tangents are well tangent to the surface defined:)
Look at the picture: Image

Each engine defines it's own way of how those three are defined and delivered , however the Ogre3d way is to have that in mesh file ... Try running OgreMeshy if you have it .... it displays all verticies attributes a mesh file delivers.

Hey paul, any reason you're working on a private repo? Or am I looking too much into the word 'private' there? Is it on github?

Just make sure it's backed up as losing data is such a common theme for people working on private repos.
