noob cant make it work - assetmanager

[phil1234]

Hi everyone,

 

I just cant see why my code does not work

 

It seems the task I defined does not seem to be running

no error, nothing

 

   this.canvas = document.getElementById('renderCanvas');    this.engine = new BABYLON.Engine(this.canvas, true);    this.scene = this.CreateScene();        this.engine.runRenderLoop((function(){        this.scene.render();    }).bind(this));        $(window).on('resize',(function(){        this.engine.resize();    }).bind(this));

 

System.prototype.CreateScene = function(){    // create a basic BJS Scene object    var scene = new BABYLON.Scene(this.engine);    // create a FreeCamera, and set its position to (x:0, y:5, z:-10)    var camera = new BABYLON.FreeCamera('camera1', new BABYLON.Vector3(0, 5,-10), scene);    // target the camera to scene origin    camera.setTarget(BABYLON.Vector3.Zero());    // attach the camera to the canvas    camera.attachControl(this.canvas, false);    // create a basic light, aiming 0,1,0 - meaning, to the sky    var light = new BABYLON.HemisphericLight('light1', new BABYLON.Vector3(0,1,0), scene);     var assetsManager = new BABYLON.AssetsManager(scene);    var meshTask = assetsManager.addMeshTask("loading task1", "", "./data/", "blender.babylon");    meshTask.onSuccess = function (task) {        task.loadedMeshes[0].position = new BABYLON.Vector3(0, 0, 0);    };     assetsManager.onFinish = function (tasks) {        this.engine.runRenderLoop(function () {            scene.render();        });    };   return scene;}; 

 

any idea what I could be doing wrong

 

thanks

Hello,

 

it seems to me that you should not render the scene returned by your function as you also ask to render it when the mesh is loaded:

  this.canvas = document.getElementById('renderCanvas');    this.engine = new BABYLON.Engine(this.canvas, true);    this.CreateScene();            $(window).on('resize',(function(){        this.engine.resize();    }).bind(this));

Hmm, might be a stupid question, but are you calling "assetsManager.load()" somewhere? I think that is needed to make it start processing the defined tasks. Since that line is a bit hidden in the documentation, I thought I better ask

Yes, the load method is missing

assetManager.load();

yep, figured it out, actualy in the tutorial, it was a bit "hidden" as I read it too fast

thanks everyone :-)
