I'm currently working on my Game Engine and have just started with some mesh loading. I started with the format .obj (and yeah I know there are alot of better formats, but I was following guides and I think it's good pratices aswell). Now I have run in to a problem. The guide I was following gave you a couple of .obj files to try with and it was all good. I then asked a friend who is working with 3D animation to give me a couple of .obj files to try with aswell, however his files, when opened up in a txt format, doesn't contain any new lines to separate the information at all (everything was on one row). Now I the loading function I use depends on this to extract the information.

My question is: is the files I got bad in someway and the information should be on diffrent rows, or is my function bad because it depends on that? ( and seeing how there are no ; or anything like that in the .obj files, I don't really know any other way to seperate the information)

My friend made the 3D modells and exported the modells in blender, and the guide im following is http://www.braynzarsoft.net/index.php?p=DX11Lessons

I'm working on a game engine and just started with mesh loading. I started with the format .obj. I ran into this problem:

The guide I'm following gave me a couple of .obj files to try and they all worked fine. I then asked a friend who is working with 3D animation to give me a couple of .obj files to try in addition, but his files, when opened up in a txt format, contain no newlines to separate the information at all. (Everything was on one line). The loading function I use depends on this to extract the information.

Are the files he gave me bad in some way? Is my function bad because it depends on newlines being there? (I can't see .obj files having any other delimiter character...)

My friend made and exported the 3D models in Blender. This is the guide I'm following.
