Is the Collada loader working? #220

Closed arcln closed 3 years ago

arcln commented 3 years ago

Hello,

I can't get the Collada loader to load anything. I tried to export the default Blender scene using Blender 2.81, but I'm getting the error Invalid shader element. I tried some random .dae files found on the internet and it just displays nothing. The behaviour is the same when using g3nview.

Is the Collada loader supposed to work?

After investigation, I found that the parser works for simple COLLADA documents exported using Blender <= 2.79. Unfortunately, it ignores a lot of DAE elements (such as controllers), making it unusable in real world projects. I think it is a bit ambitious to say that this engine supports COLLADA - it doesn't. Maybe this should be removed from the README?
