Irrlicht Engine

Hi Cobra

Apologies, I didn't mean to start an argument about wrappers. My requirements are for a teaching environment where the students will/may be using physics in their final projects. These students have generally less than 3 to 400 hours of experience in C++ so a wrapper is attempting to ease ...

Thanks for all the comments and yes we will stay with just bullet.

As far as the terrain example goes (I do always read the forums/samples/google before posting) it shows how to extract the terrain data with getMeshBufferForLOD etc but not how to take that data and build an IMesh reference as ...

Thanks Radikalizm

I was intending to try using just the LOD 0 which was how the "pure" Bullet code in a previous post worked. Might just stay with Bullet rather than the irrBullet wrapper. It's for sample code in a games dev class, I was hoping to ease the pain a bit using a wrapper.

Is there a way of extracting the IMesh reference from an Irrlicht TerrainSceneNode for the second parameter of irrBullet IBvhTriangleMeshShape to supply the collision mesh?

Using terrain->getMesh() for the IMesh parameter dies on the line createShape(collMesh); in the IBvhTriangleMeshShape ctor ...

In case you have not resolved this yet.

This works with Cinema4D v9, and I think v10 but the menu options may have changed. Some students of mine used this last year.
