It turns out there was a bug in their mesh exporter, the only thing left I use it for, such that bounding boxes are calculated incorrectly.  Judging by the forum this has been a known bug for a while yet the author didn&#8217;t fix it.  So I wasted an hour figuring out how to run the mesh upgrader recursively, and I had to mod it to get rid of the exceptions so if a mesh didn&#8217;t have a material it wouldn&#8217;t crash generating tangent vectors.  Now artists can&#8217;t export models anymore, although I&#8217;m not sure if they were to begin with.<\/p>\n<p>The silver lining is that oFusion has another bug where it wasn&#8217;t generating tangent vectors anyway, so in hindsight it wasn&#8217;t really wasted work as I eventually should have done this regardless.  Pre-generated tangent vectors let the game load faster.<\/p>\n<p>Definitely, the first thing I&#8217;m going to do post-ship is to hire a programmer to write a usable exporter for the artists.\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I upgraded Ogre today to 1.4.1.
