Irrlicht Engine

Thanks for your help !
Hmm... I have to check this but I'm pretty sure I was just moving with left and up, and shooting with space.
Up + left + space is not a so exotic combination.



class CustomEventReceiver : public IEventReceiver
{
virtual bool OnEvent(const SEvent & event)
{
/// Keyboard ...

Hello,
I have a problem with key presses when several ( >= 3 ) keys are down. Depending on the combination, the third key press event is never received.

My code :

if (event.EventType == EET_KEY_INPUT_EVENT)
{
if (event.KeyInput.PressedDown) {
// Not reached
}
}


I assume it is because the ...

Ok never mind, it certainly comes from my code

Well, the problem is that it occurs even if removeAllTexture is called between the loadings... I was only stress-testing my save/load game system, so the number of loaded images is always the same.

The log says something like :
Loaded texture A
Loaded texture B
Loaded texture C

driver ...

Hello
Context : Irrlicht 1.5, Win32, OpenGL or DirectX

I have some textures that I load :
driver->getTexture(...)
driver->getTexture(...)

and then I unload everything :
driver->removeAllTextures();

When I repeat this until driver->getTexture is called 128 times, my program no longer displays ...

It definitely works ! Sincerely, working with light, efficient, well written libraries is something I like (namely Irrlicht, Lua, and now gameswf).

I replaced the SDL-opengl code with glew and it worked like a charm. Once this is done, the rendering loop is basically :

glPushAttrib(GL_ALL_ATTRIB ...

Thanks, I tried and it worked, didn't know it was possible to call opengl directly.
I hope I am able to make gameswf work with Irrlicht. I'll publish my work here if so.

Thanks for the fast reply.
I didn't know this class ! So as long as an opengl device is running, I can just include some gl headers and call glWhatIWant between beginScene() and endScene() ?
Can't be so easy, is it ?

I am evaluating the use of some third parties to display my ingame GUI.
One of my potential choices is gameswf, which is able to run and display basic swf flash files using several hardware acceleration layers (in particular, opengl).
How difficult would it be to integrate such 3rd party with ...

Hello,
It's horrible to fail on such a ridiculous problem.
I have 1 MeshSceneNode that has some material properties specified, including SpecularColor. It works.

Then, I draw some triangles with this code :

SMaterial mate;
mate.SpecularColor = SColor(0x0);
driver->setMaterial(mate);

driver ...

Thanks ! This class is cool.
And what about the idea of automatically build a texture composed of all the sprites ?
The use may look like :


SpriteLoader loader();
Sprite & s1 = loader.createSprite("s1.jpg"); // SpriteLoader update its internal texture
Sprite & s2 = loader.createSprite("s2.jpg ...

I need to display sprites. I was thinking of writing a class that :
[*] load images
[*] pack them into a big texture (or several of needed)
[*] allow to display sprites without having to care of the textures

To pack the images in a big texture, a kind of geometric optimization algorithm is needed ...

Thanks for answering so quickly ;-)

But that means no fullscreen post-processing shader can be applied, without a downsampling degradation ?
Would it be a lot work to create a patch allowing to render to a bigger texture ?
I need fullscreen post-processing shaders for the project i'm porting from ...

I thought that d3d could do all the time and OpenGL can since fbos were implemented

I'll try with openGL and see what's happening.
Anyway, how do you explain the low quality of rendering when the device dimensions are not powers of 2 ?
I think it's because the rendering is done on a smaller ...
