RAD Studio XE3 and FireMonkey 2 include support for importing 3D models into your HD and 3D Delphi and C++ applications. The TModel3D FireMonkey component supports loading of DAE, OBJ and ASE model files and their textures. TModel3D supports the new FireMonkey 2 Material Source components that I covered in a previous blog post and video. This quick video shows you how to load a 3D model file and apply a texture using the TLightMaterialSource component.

Thank you Anders Ohlsson, Embarcadero Developer Relations Engineer in Scotts Valley, for your help in FireMonkey 3D programming. This is the last of 31 videos in 31 days. I hope you like them. Let me know if I want additional quick videos and I will try to add them to the series (davidi@embarcadero.com).

Hello mister Ohlsson.
I am a delphi developer, and I develop also 3d applications. Lately I have been requested to write an application that displays a video in 3d preferably using openGL, but if there is a component in delphi firemonkey that does that it is o.k. too. That application should also be able to stop and resume the video. Does the firemonkey have a solution to that? I have been looking for a solution to that requirement, through the web, but I found nothing yet. So in my despair I posted that comment…
