ah, didn't realize that's how it worked outside of 3d modelling programs. I am working on a way to append the triangles of a second object that intersect with the first object. Where they occupy the same space, the triangles are removed from the first completely, and the intersecting triangles are i...

Boolean Mesh Manipulation

Hey there, recently, I have been getting back into irrlicht, the real C++ one, not the .net wrapped one. Have discovered so many more features. Anyway, I was wondering if anyone knew any Mesh Manipulation techniques that could be used to do an A subtract B boolean function between two meshes to remo...

Hold ya horses. Just put in a piece of code that resizes the image to 4096x4096. This seems to work much better than before, unfortunatly its still a bit blurred. Is there anyway of clearing up the image any more?

Kk, that does help, but could you suggest any coding that could be added so that the image would appear normally?

It was already in a power of two, it was an image 1920 by 1080. Are you saying i need to double it then reload it, or do i need to change it so that the values are to the power of two (i.e. 2048x2048)?

An issue with texture loading

Hey there, I have just been taking up some more programming and having trouble already. I am developing a program that does a nice smooth 3D display of my images, but every image I load comes up really weird, as if it has been shrunk then stretched. I was wondering if anyone knew what was wrong with...

as i said, i dont understand shaders, yet. but i soon will. I am trying to understand why some shaders wont work on my system, but have a large degree of sucess on others. The only main reason i am trying to incorperate the shader directly into a program is just to keep it tidy. I only want to have ...

yup, i am the worlds biggest hipocrite. Its not so much that I want to steal it, its just that i dont know how to make shaders, and then i dont want to reveal the entire source of the shader to all that seek it.

Yup, an un-nickable shader, lol. Do you know where a shader to cause refraction based on a texture could be acquired?

Ok, that sounds very cleaver. I was wondering if anyone had a shader like this. Also, is there a way to implement it automatically into a program without leaving the file open to the public?

Refraction

Hey all, i have been looking for a way to implement refraction into a program of mine. I have found several pieces of code on this site, but they dont work on my system or any of the others in my house. There is however one type of refraction that works and is very good for my needs. The example is ...

Hmm, well. Do you know where I can find or how to make something that would look very similar to this:
