31 XE3 quick videos in 31 days - Oct31 - Importing 3D Models In Your FireMonkey Applications

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.
