I am new to DirectX 12 and trying to render mesh on DX. So far, I succeeded in retrieving vertices and indices from obj and fbx files and render all vertices on DX 12 using the template universal window project. However, I encountered some problems with the indices buffer as the rendering result of triangle list is completely incorrect, especially when the input mesh is big(hundreds of thousands vertices). Basically, the indices data is written as a pointer array and it seems to be correct. With the line list primitive topology, the rendering result is shown as below. Line list primitive topology rendering result
I am wondering if anyone can give any suggestion where could probably go wrong in the codes. For the IBV settings I am using the exact codes from the template project. Thank you in advance for any helps.
Updates: The data is the obj file data retrieved using FBX SDK. I confirmed both the obj mesh information and the retrieved data, they were precisely matched. So I think the data file is correct. Besides, for the data passing in for the IBV setting, such as buffer byte size, are also correct. For the code, it was from VS DX 12 template universal windows project, as listed below. Thank you very much for helps.
