Irrlicht Engine

Hi. I have big trouble with calculating a time factor that compensates fps changes. This means, if the factor was 1 on 60 fps, it would be 2 on 30 fps, and 0.5 on 180 fps. And a value multiplicated with this factor would be fps-independent (as half fps results in doubled speed). Now the problem is t...

Irrlicht version: 1.3.1 SDK, but is also with revision ~800, which I have also around When I exit a fullscreen irrlicht engine game/program, the irrlicht engine doesn't reset the resolution to the original desktop resolution which I had before starting the program/game. This happens not only when us...

How can I convert an ITexture to an IImage? I fear I'll need a working lock() for that, won't I? And I have no idea how to fix/implement it, so how can I get an ITexture into an IImage now

sadly the thread doesn't tell me how to solve this problem - so how can I convert an ITexture to an IImage? That's all I want to do.

I have an indirect rendering problem with OpenGL and SVN Rev 862 which seems to have something to do with the texture locking: rendertarget => ITexture* renderlockpos => void* while(device->run() && wquit == 0 && TERMINATENOW == 0) { driver->setRenderTarget(rendertarget, true, true, ...

Call of Duty did such an effect somehow (on my GF4), so it is possible
Does anyone know a bloom effect which should work on a GF4? At least I think that would look even better than a motion blur...
TheGameMaker you made a bloom as I see, but I guess it won't work on my graphic card again

hi @ all I found a nice motion blur effect on the code snippets forum - but its shaders doesn't compile on my graphic card! At first I thought, my GeForce4 would be too old - but then someone in the thread mentioned something like "ohh nice it's already working with PS 1.1", and - I don't ...

It is really irrational to turn the UAC off, as today's programs are very complex and have often some hidden functions that not every user might want. At least, if you got a virus, he nearly can't do anything bad with UAC turned on, think about it, and there are a lot of programs out there which are...

yep I removed the part which tries to do this. thank you for your help

is GLSL version 1.3 good enough for this? I got a geforce 4 and using opengl I get "GLSL shader failed to compile"!

How can I set the direction for the light now? With slightstruct.setposition, with lightscenenode.setposition or with lightscenenode.setrotation? I do of course now that the light is infinite, and in the old version the code above created a light which shine with an angle like (20,20,0) to (0,0,0) :...

Solution: Because of the new light system I needed to use another way of setting the light direction. The light had exact the same angle like the plane, and this confused the lighting I am working on a linux system (ubuntu linux) with opengl 1.5, using an NVidia GeForce4 Ti 4200 with AGP8X/AGP/SSE2...

Another way of doing it would be making the 16 pictures or as much as you want of the different directions, and just showing that one as a sprite for the current camera angle relative to the tree. This is how classic games like "Lands of Lore 3" did it, and it works not that bad if you hav...

I found the segmentation fault with several printf-lines and fixed it. The -g thingy is nevertheless interesting... @hybrid I'll try out your suggestion (-L), maybe it helps.

So why has the developer of irrKlang added exactly this switch to the example makefile? And why doesn't it work anymore when removing this switch?

It seems to me that this switch exists, but somehow it doesn't like -g :/ and I need -g to find out where I have this ugly segmentation fault
