Irrlicht Engine

This is insanely good!

I wish you could have released this a year ago, when I was doing my final year project though. It was a 3D capital ship combat game, but I couldn't
figure out how to limit the turret's firing arc, making it looks extremely stupid.
Anyway, really nice work. I am looking ...

Thanks for sharing your code.
In my project I need to have a node constantly trying to face another moving node (think turret aiming at a ship)
Your animation code is potentially useful for this but it would be very troublesome to keep making new animators everytime the target moves.
Would it be too ...

sorry to dig this up
I wanted to handle explosion with a billboard scene node with all the frames
of the effect in a single texture.

So far I am unsuccessful.
It seems that the last code vitek posted works - at least the second part.
For some reason the translation is visible only when rotating the ...

it seems that there were some problem with my code such that
it didn't work before

I tried something like this but get very strange results


irr::core::matrix4 test;

GameEngine* game = GameEngine::Instance();

irr::core::matrix4 Rot;

Rot.setRotationDegrees(this->ProjectileNode->getRotation());

core::vector3df up_vec = core::vector3df(0,1,0);

Rot.rotateVect(up_vec);

Hi all,

I have been trying my hands at doing a 3D capital ship battle game in space. Irrlicht has been very useful until I got to the turret/missile part.
I have tried to search for a way to determine which way to turn for a turret/missile to track their target. Unfortunately, it's a lot more ...
