Alls I have to say is it's 2009 not 1995 and it's time the website reflected that. People judge a book by it's cover, unfortunitly.. and in this case Irrlicht's cover is the website. It took me and krabbo less then day to setup our site. We used drupal, have light box, dynamic changing screen shots ...

This is pretty awesome :) :D I made a few changes so that we could have both zone lights and others. Performance is great! :D I added a manageType to ILightSceneNode. I added a little doo dad to play with attenuation. See below. void KE_LightManager::setupLight(scene::ILightSceneNode * lnode, KE_LIG...

very kewl :D Interesting enough we used this routine a lot and is called every CPU tick multiple times. Something changed in the collision from 1.4 to 1.4.1.. Then change didn't work out well for us and slowed things down, so we stuck with 1.4's collision. When I tested this code out we got 5 - 10 f...

Because I think animated meshes could benefit from this. Tell me if it's nonsense. Animated meshes are changing every frame, so - I guess - they won't benefit from VBOs at all. Hence there this technique could be handy. If I'm not wrong, with hardware skinning, you can upload all the mesh data to y...

So very kewl idea!! I was wanting to something like this for our animation system. So I stuck it in during our weight calculation code to avoid any extra loops. On a Quad Core I was getting 30 extra FPS then normal. So definitely faster on a quad core. On a dual core I get -2 FPS and on a single cor...

Couple thoughts... Since we're building KrabbitWorld one piece at a time, which is alot of work for the two of us :P Each title we release is a piece of KrabbitWorld, so we could always use KrabbitWorld in the title. In the history of KrabbitWorld there is the KaRa, the map of existence. Existence c...

Good points my coloc (coder, competing video game fighter) brought: -RPG elements should have an option to be turned off, or maxed, for all in fight so that those not enjoying the rpg grind can still play and enjoy the game. (that, or make the rpg element affect more the look than the gameplay) Lev...
