material module

[marco.v...@gmail.com]

Hello ,

I'm writing about this comment in the load function of the material module

 Right now, this just stores a reference to the effect which is instantiated in the material. The effect instance can have parameters, but this is rarely used in   the wild, so it is not yet implemented.

I actually do need to use these parameters.   The params exist under the material tab in the form of the pasted text below.  I was wondering if there are

any plans to add this or if I could get some hints on how to do this myself?  I'm not an expert but I'm guessing that I basically need to create an Effect

instance and load the parameters from there ?? 

Thank you for any help.

Can you provide the rest of your collada file?

Sure thing .   I tried to start doing this today by adding a new function to the Effect class that would create and return instances of the Material instance_effect over rides , but didn't get to far :/
