Irrlicht Engine

hi. when i started with irrlicht (not too long ago) i was interested in using c# for a change of matter (i do too much work in java). but soon i found out, that some parts of the .net implementation is work in progress. like some others, i found "irrlicht.net cp" (which is beautifully hard...

this is pretty cool! this could fit pretty well into my (far from alpha) project...
thanks!

i think building a spline is pretty much work for this stuff and has to be done in a single step, before your object can start flying. i would possibly try to add a collision response animator and move the object step by step each frame. if i understand right, the collision animator cannot pass thro...

thanks for your ideas and help. kschn, the last part of my post means i always wondered how you would put a character down on the ground (if its not flat anyways) and keep it from falling through it. you answered that pretty much: with basic collision detection, which stops the "falling" m...

good point about the user-input. if it's looking like any box, it's useless. i don't have any experience with physics. isn't it possible to stop a physics controlled object from bouncing by applying a certain, opposing force? maybe you can use a sphere, constrain its movement to up/down and just upd...

ok, this idea might be bullshit, but i'm not doing this professional after all: with all the physics engines around, would it be possible to do character movement based on physics? this would make sure the char is on the ground and if it jumps, you give it an impulse up, which blends with any other ...

offtopic (but maybe Gordie was offtopic also): i dont see, how lua will help and why do artists know lua?

i feel like stealing something, but a second before i found the following link, i read this thread, so here comes what...

looks like a pretty comprehensive list of libs for any purpose:

hm. still no scrollbar it seems.

it looks like it's not yet in C#. i stumbled across this mayself.

i wonder if it would be of help when someone (e.g. me) ports this part and contributes it back to the next release?

is this a stupid question or do i miss anything else?
if it's not possible: can anyone just say so, pls?

nothing new from me, but im also looking to achieve such an effect.

hi,
is there a way to add shadow-volumes to meshes in irrEdit?
or how would i do this after loading a scene?
