LWJGL tutorial series on how to create a 3D Java game with OpenGL!

This week we create an OBJ parser to load 3D models made in Blender into our game!

Download the stall model: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/7l598pr7b4zx63j/AAB_PzQl3zU2WS5hhlKgMb1Wa?dl=0

Download Blender for free: http://www.blender.org/download/


Common Problems:

-If you're using your own model then make sure to texture it in Blender first using UV mapping!

-The size of the normals array is "vertices.size() * 3" and NOT "normals.size() * 3". Check 6:38 in the video and make sure you got this right.

- Make sure your texture file has dimensions that are powers of 2 (128x128, 256x256, 512x512 etc.) The file may have got resized when you downloaded it.

-Make sure you used "1 - currentTex.y" in the processVertex() method.

-If you're using your own model and the texture looks distorted in the game but fine in Blender then you may be experiencing the texture seam problem that I talked about in the previous episode. You can fix this by using the improved OBJLoader provided at the end of episode 16.
