Load materials to a OBJ model

[Aksiom]

Hi,

first I want to say that jPCT rocks. I really appreciate your work!
The problem I have is this:

I load an .obj model together with the .mtl file but the I cant find a way to apply the materials:

This is my code:

Code Select Expand


        try {
       object = loadModel("untitled.obj", "untitled.mtl", 0.1F);
} catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
}
TextureManager.getInstance().addTexture("carpaint");

object.build();
world.addObject(object);

I saw many solutions on how to load textures but I cant find a way to load materials that are no textures. I want to know how it is done.
The documentation says:

If the materials used in the file are not using textures, small, single colored textures will be generated that represent the diffuse colors of the materials

I hope my question is clear. I have no images that i want to use as materials, so when i create a Texture I dont know what path should i input. I tried several combination but nothing worked.

This is how the material looks lik in the mtl file:

Code Select Expand

newmtl carpaint
Ns 52.941176
Ka 0.000000 0.000000 0.000000
Kd 0.627200 0.627200 0.627200
Ks 0.900000 0.900000 0.900000
Ni 1.000000
d 1.000000
illum 2

The logcat shows that it loads all the materials:

I found the solution. I feel really stupid now.

I had the ambientLight of the world set to dark.

Code Select Expand

world.setAmbientLight(20, 20, 20);

so I couldnt see the materials at all, after I changed it to

Code Select Expand

world.setAmbientLight(250, 250, 250);

it all worked fine without needing to load any materials. It seems that the jPTC load method loads the materials automatically if it is not a texture image.
