Irrlicht Engine

I didn't think I needed to delete the object, i figured that device->drop() would be fine, but when that didn't work I thought it might help ... it didn't :-( I am really at a loss, I might see if I can find another computer that I can try it on to see if is my computer, but that just seems unlikely...

Thanks for the reply sp00n, I don't think so as they render fine if I run them independently. Just a thought, I am using the Bullet engine which seems to open a couple of threads, which is also making it hard for me to debug. Any thoughts on how I can make sure all the threads are re-initialised wit...

* UPDATE * Adding cout<<"Test string"<<endl; into the drawing loop makes the program spit out said 'test string' to the command prompt but the window will still not render. Well the inside of the window at least, the window border does still print out the frames per second. Like I said, I ...

I am trying to write a little bit of code to present the user with a simple GUI before loading my game. This is what I came up with gameEngine* game = new gameEngine(fullscreen, music, shadows, additive, vsync, driverType); while (State != DONE) { switch (State) { case LOADING: State = game->loadScr...

*laughs* well that's the thing about asking for help isn't it. You may not get the answers you want.

I am sorry I misunderstood you question. Good luck

per pixel lighting example --> scene::IMesh* tangentMesh = smgr->getMeshManipulator()->createMeshWithTangents( roomMesh->getMesh(0)); I used this with a .3ds file I made in Blender and it worked fine. not sure about your second question, i always have lighting in my scenes. Isn't that the point?

Thanks for you help guys.

A bit embarrassed to admit. In my constructor I used
When I should have had
As I had allready defined body as a member in the class

I won't make that mistake again.

P.S I did remove the animator, it was an artefact of the demo I hacked for testing purposes. It has made no difference

OK, appreciate the help so far. the revised code after taking on your comments is if(physics.body && test) { btVector3 testVector = physics.body->getCenterOfMassPosition(); const f32 x = testVector[0]; const f32 y = testVector[1]; const f32 z = testVector[2]; const core::vector3df v (x, y, z...

Thanks for the reply Erwin, I have looked at your code, very impressive. However, I am still not sure why my code isn't working. What is the difference between my code test->setPosition(core::vector3df((f32)testVect[0], (f32)testVect[1], (f32)testVect[2])); And your code m_irrNodes[i]->setPosition(c...

What model format would you suggest to export from blender as?

Hi can anyone help explain why when I try to synchronise my irrlicht node with my bullet node I get a seg fault My Code :: // create test cube scene::ISceneNode* test = smgr->addCubeSceneNode(60); // let the cube rotate and set some light settings scene::ISceneNodeAnimator* anim = smgr->createRotati...

OK cheers there are a few good ideas there. I am going to try the surface normals approach first as there are already lots of quake maps available, and making my own is another task I would prefer to avoid.

Thanks for taking the time to reply Yes I did, I can find the Arena Awareness header file which uses the information in the .aas file but cant find information on the file structure itself. I can't even read the file at the mo. I have an idea of what is in there but don't have enough of a handle on ...

I am in complete mode, not sure why its not working. I tried your binary file in Vista. I would love to see a complete stand alone library with API for any quake map. but that might be expecting a bit much I suppose .
