kinect.getDepthSource()->getMesh() returns plain plane #89

Hi, thanks for making this addon! Its wonderful to have access to kinect on windows in OF. I was wondering why these lines return a blank mesh, i.e. a plane. ofxKFW2::Device kinect; kinect.open(); kinect.initDepthSource(); ofMesh scanFull = kinect.getDepthSource()->getMesh(); I am using VS 2017 with a kinect v2. The IR returns a texture fine, I haven't been using the depth texture because it lacks details. its either the same gray color or black, no inbetween values. I'm not sure if thats relevant i can provide more details if needed! I am invested in the future of this addon.

hey! that should work fine are you calling kinect.update() each frame also?

Also note that the first few frames are often blank whilst the device initialises (so you can't test for a valid mesh until you've been calling kinect.update() for a couple of seconds
