Irrlicht Engine

Has support for drawing splines been added?

That is pretty much the route I was thinking of going.

I wanted to see if anyone would like me to take this feature a step further or leave it be.

I think it would be really awesome if every entity could have separate transparency. For instance, I have two buttons but each button can have a separate transparent value. Similar to how EQ did their UI ...

Perhaps not the best way but I have fixed this by editing the engine itself.

In case anyone else wants to do this here is what I did:

Added another EGUI_DEFAULT_COLOR to IGUISkin.h
enum EGUI_DEFAULT_COLOR
{
...
//! The image on a button
EGDC_BUTTON_IMAGE,
....
}

Gave the new color some ...

I want to use images for buttons but I want them to appear to be translucent. The issue is that when I use _gui->getSkin()->setColor(...) it does nothing to the images. It makes text and sliders and buttons translucent but the image remains the same. Any help would be awesome.


// create a button ...

When a dialog opens from the main section that dialog can only move within the main dialog. For instance, I tell it I want to load an image the image dialog box pops up. I try and move it away from the main dialog and it will only go as far as the edge of the main dialog. If I move the main dialog ...

terrain->getHeight(f32 x, f32 y)

?

If not, then sorry, I don't quite get what you're trying to do.

How did I not notice this in the documentation?! Must of skipped over cause that is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks for the help Eigen. Works perfect now.

But what I don't get is why it ...

If anyone can give me a better solution that would be awesome but how bad does the below sound.

I make a collision point to test against that is extremely way up in the Y and one that is extremely way down in the Y. Then use getCollisionPoint(...) to find out if that ray has an intersection to the ...

Edit: Question needed rephrasing.

I am rendering a set of terrain based on a heightmap and then loading in xyz points that I would like to generate lines from. I would like the data's Y to stick to the terrains Y. Is there a simple method to do this? I looked at getCollisionPoint(...) but this ...

vitek you are awesome! Thanks for the help!

Sorry it was a silly problem. All my problems are silly things on my part.

This was my intial thought as well but I have gathered the info about the bounding box it is min(0,0,0) max(9600,1070,9600). I then made the position vector to be (0,1100,0) and I still get nothing rendering.

This is probably extremely rudimentary but I can't figure out what the problem is. I would like to add text to the four corners of a landscape so I can do some debugging. The issue I am having is that I can't get the text to show up in the system at all. I tried it in Tutorial 12 and I couldn't get ...

Does Irrlicht use 16-bit grayscale images for heightmap creation as well as 8-bit?

Looks awesome! What is the license on the code?

I believe I have found one issue though. I use 16-bit pngs for my heightmap. After I run your application it splits the image into multiple sections those sections are now 8-bit pngs. Would be really awesome if it maintained the quality of the image ...

Awesome! Thanks for the help!
