Is there really NO WAY that you can obtain ANY information WHATSOEVER on a Brush or Surface, like it's diffuse color, alpha, shininess, texture name, etc?!?!?
I guess I already know the answer to this one, but hoping someone might have some trick up their sleave?
cheers,
Danny
I'm also asking this in that I want to be able to 'identify' a certain surface on a model (if possible) in some other way than it's index - so that when I tweak/revise the model (and thus possibly it's materials) that I can still FIND the SAME surface by some otherway than it's index number (which could have changed because of the revision)....
Check my post in the link below (the last one) for a link to my DLL, you can get some information about brushes e.t.c.

thnx
Danny you may also indentify a surface by the filename of the texture its brush is using, as seen in the "SaveB3D" example, in the code archives.
Thanks guys!
And special thanks to Tom for that DLL!!!
I was using an older version already, but didn't knew about this version. Thanks a million!!!!!
Now back to the drawing boards...
