Irrlicht Engine

Hello guys, checking out the functions available by irrlicht to create ortho projection matrices i discovered what could be a bug based on the MSDN documentation. The line M[14] = (T)(zNear/(zFar-zNear)); should actually be M[14] = (T)(-zNear/(zFar-zNear)); based on http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/l...

On my opinion the hardest part to program in C++ or any other language is not knowing the language itself but knowing how to design your software, in order to use irrlicht and not run in a endless loop of crashes and circular dependencies you will need a decent level in C++ and software design, an e...

Yes, the problem had been with 32bit indices. But IMHO we resolved all those problems... Not sure about the textures. Well today i started to debug the black textures problem and found why.. looks like the EMT_SOLID adds up the vertex color to the final result and i had them set to black :lol: :mrg...

Well i dont know much of it yet but i will have to deal quite a bit with it soon since i have plans to rewrite it from scratch to add support for animation tracks, vertex and skeletal animations together, hardware skinning and other stuffs im on need for the project im working on so i will try to po...

I answer myself since nobody did, after doing some more research it looks that i was right, LocalMatrix is the transform of the bone relative to its parent, globalmatrix is then built by the CSkinnedMesh iself based on the bone and their parents LocalMatrices, same apply for position/scale/rotation ...

Hello, I'm trying to understand how the internals of the irrlicht skinned mesh animation system actually works, by reading the code of the loaders i guess i figured out what exactly each matrix represents, however i would love if someone can confirm my thoughts. Joint LocalMatrix contains the transf...

Well im using the 1.8 version published at the main page, something i've also noticed is that if i set my material to EMT_SOLID textures doesn't render at all, i have to set EMT_LIGHTMAP for them to render which is weird ... i dont know if im missing something on the loading code but this is the fir...

Hello guys, I've been working on a custom mesh format, i've got the max exporter done and the basic of the irrlicht loader for it, however im having some issues when rendering the resulting mesh as an octree. If i add the mesh as a normal mesh node it does render without any problem, texture looks g...

Isn't that a little too obvious? :D Also, I don't understand why the exact source code is visible since the test exe was compiled in release mode (VC++ 2008) with all debug options disabled. http://img109.imageshack.us/img109/9861/testsb.png You see the line because you have the source code in your...

Atleast in spain Guitarrero (with the extra R) mean the man that play the guitar.

It seems to be a null pointer

I have been integrating bumped lightmaps the last days for a project i'm working on, however, it looks strange on some situations since what i do is blend the dot3 product of the normal map along with the position of the light when the lightmap was generated, it looks so good for 1 light but when mo...

Well, i actually only support 4 lights (isn't a problem since i only want to enable the bumpy effect of the near lights, the farther ones will look flat). I'm now trying to get a nice effect that makes the light look like a volumetric one, its so often used in left 4 dead and also get cubemaps worki...

New update to the shader, it looks a bit better now (i've managed to blend all lights together with a good looking bump style )
