Irrlicht Engine

Is there some kind of method of creating a callback for each scene node to be called each time the screen is redrawn?

Someone had a scene node for decals - like bullet holes in the walls. Textures over over other textures. you could have a look for that.

Try realigning the normals in the model. That could be it.

You will need to alter the model to do that, however.

P.S. in a 3D model the normals are the basically which way each triangle faces.

So what's wrong exactly? does it just crash? There is no real difference between .X and .3ds other then animation and filesize, so if your code works for a .X model it should work for a .3ds model with no problems.

qustion: Does this work with irr 1.4? It works on 1.3, but stopped functioning when i upgraded to 1.4. It compiles and runs fine, but it's stopped detecting when i press a key. eg if (eventReceiver.leftMouseDown()==true) { cout << "Test" << endl; } will never return true. Is this just a pr...

Ok here is a demo. To be breif, it is currently useless.

Those are mad effects!
Thanks!

The .NET wrapper is included in the main irrlicht download. Look in the folder 'examples .NET'. If you cant find them in v1.4, try v1.3. The good thing about c++ is that you can put the complex code into a class - giving you an environment more like VB, with simple functions and commands. Plus, ther...

I've got the movement working at the moment, just it feels slightly wrong. you know, it doesn't look realistic. For grabbing onto ledges, i was going to use collision mesh on the upper model, so that if it was falling and it collided with the wall then it would grab on, which would disable gravity, ...

I would recomend learning c++ just for the power of the language when compared with visual basic. Unless you have an unreal computer, then it is unlikly that a VB orientated program will be able to handle the more complex tasks, which would mean less effects, less complex graphics and similar proble...

Try using Camera->setFarValue(distance);
This will set the maximum distance that objects are visable at.

I hope this helps.

At the moment it sucks, which is no surprise considering my current skills. (to date: Procrastination. Crashing school server. Getting in trouble for crashing the school server, etc.) Thanks for the tip about the animation, btw. At the moment im trying to get the physics right for the varoius thing ...

I've currently completed the basic movement and physics. Next I'm going to add in basic combat. Does anyone have a good method for action based animation? eg do this then return to normal? I haven't done too much animation with irrlicht before. Also if anyone has any ideas for characters that would ...

Ok, I'll look into it.

Just a question regarding the use of animated meshes and newton;
newton doesn't seem to allow the creation of animatied collision bodies, does anyone have a prospective solution for this?
