Irrlicht Engine

Actually, I find the null device very useful to check whether my meshes and textures are loading properly.

For an event reciever, look at the mesh viewer.

For the falling through water, maybe you need to add the water as a separate mesh without a triangle selector. I'm not sure.

Considering what you've posted, .x seems quite a restricted format But anyway, I've found that the Blender exporter seems to have a limit on the length of texture names to 18 characters or so, so caution with material naming is a good idea.

Rofl. Yeah, alt+F4 exits from the demos, but if you want to have a custom key to exit from them you'll have to add an event reciever and then make a key binding which causes the program to exit.

Hmm...to prevent the errors happening, it is possible to just search for the code in the .x file using a word processor such as wordpad. I had the same problem wiht the Blender .x exporter because it shortened the texture names so they couldn't be loaded. I went in, searched, edited the texture ...

Stupid me...the code I wrote does work, it was the model that had the problem. I'll use your function for the HUD, bob

What I need is a 3D model of a gun which attaches to the camera...I am using the standard Irrlicht camera, but the gun just doesn't go where I need it.

It would help if I had an idea of how much the vector3df translates the model.

Sorry for the double post, but although that code is great for HUDs, it isn't so hot when it comes to adding a 3D gun to the camera...if I'm worng, and I'm just being stupid (likely) please tell me

Thanks. I'll have a go with that.

I want to do this as well. Here's the code I've got so far:

scene::IAnimatedMesh* gunmesh = smgr->getMesh("gun.3ds");
scene::ISceneNode* gunnode = 0;

.........

if(gunmesh)
{
gunnode = smgr->addAnimatedMeshSceneNode(gunmesh, gunnode);
camera->addChild(gunnode);
gunnode->setPosition(vector3df(0 ...
