DotScene loader updated

I have updated DotScene loader to load keyframe information
(so can animate Nodes, like objects, cameras, lights).

Unfortunately Blender's dotscene exporter doesnt export keyframe info
but there is other programs that exports it (ie ogremax plugin).

THe DotScene Loader is currently in the AxiomContrib repository, I can grant you SVN access over there if you want to update it.

I should have been more specific I already updated it to axiomcontrib.
Just mentioned this if someone uses it already, so can create animation (paths) too.

Hi guys!
I'm writing this reply 'cause i found some issues in the DotScene Loader and I would like to know how to send you my contributes. I only know the "axiom ticket way" via trac.
I can report some "sample issues" i found, like at line 71, where

  Code:

XmlNode rootXmlNode = sceneXmlDocument.FirstChild;


could sometimes point to the xml declaration of the file, and this is not a good thing in order to successfully parse the document file.
Another examples are ParseSkyBox and ParseSkyDome methods; The loader tries to set a skybox/skydome even when the active attribute of the current tag is set to false.

In addition, i would like to ask you where i can find an updated dtd document of DotScene files. I found this, but "This article was written for an old version of Ogre3D and is therefore probably out of date!"

EDIT: Reading carefully the above mentioned dtd document, i noticed there is no active attribute mentioned for skydome, skybox or skyplane tag..maybe the editor i used to generate the DotScene file doesn't respect standards (PS i used Ogitor)...

"Little" late my answer (didnt never see this before)

I dont know about these, I did only that keyframe animation support. DotSceneLoader was created somebody else and is maintained since someone else than me.
But now in DotSceneLoader there are line

  Code:

   XmlNode rootXmlNode = sceneXmlDocument.FirstChild.NextSibling ;


which throws exception when loading my .scene files but original

  Code:

   XmlNode rootXmlNode = sceneXmlDocument.FirstChild;


works.
