Weird result loading 3ds model with DeFord's Loader

[gelero]

 Hi guys! Please help me!

I am using the nice 3ds model loader from our mate Josh.

I have modelled a single cube using max and then exported to 3ds format and finally loaded at my application. Until here, everything is fine.

But If I extrude some faces here and there on the same cube, those new face doesnt appear in the SAME APPLICATION render.

Look at this image:

And you can download the 3ds model at:

Why is this happening?!?!!?

Any help will be much appreciated.
Thank you!

Any chance you have the normals reversed on the extruded faces?

Load fine with 3dsmax,3dexplore and 3DzzD your loader should be bugged. maybe local axis problem (zoom by -1) and your point order are reversed as your normal.

No. Looks good inside max. And I JUST extrude the faces.

Well, I really dont think modifying Josh's code without let him know is a good ideia.
I debugged his code and everything looks fine. At least, for me, a mere human.

Anyway, how can I multiply those faces by -1 ?

And Bruno, which loader you use at your project? Proprietary?

Or, anybody have Josh's msn, skype, google talk, etc, etc! ?!?

The simplest thing to do for you is to import your 3ds model in 3dexplore(or an other software) and export it again, 3dExplore will fixe the problem: it can also remove keyframe,pivot,etc....

And Bruno, which loader you use at your project? Proprietary?

Yes, It is a part of 3DzzD, but I can share this source code (I already sent it to some people that ask ) but I dont like much doing that because it is really dirty programmed. At the start, it was only developed to test the 3D engine, and It has been made fast and it is not well developed, so I dont like to show it, but If you think you have any interest to having it, I can send it to you.

Hey dude! Dont worry about that!!
Working its ok! And, if you achieved that, its great!

I am interested, yes! Can you sent to guilherme@resolucao3d.com.br  ?

THANK YOU!

Ok, give me just some time to polish the code, and to add some explanations.
