Irrlicht Engine

well it sorta pointed me in the right direction, and after looking around the internet, I came up with this,


bool Runner::OnEvent( SEvent event ){
bool retValue = false;
if( event.EventType == EET_MOUSE_INPUT_EVENT ){
if( event.MouseInput.Event == EMIE_MOUSE_MOVED ) {
ray = smgr ...

Hi All,

If I'm looking at a spot in space, how do I get the x,z coordinates of the intersection of the Mouse cursor on the Y-Plane set at 0??

Thx in Advance.

My solution was to make sure the objects were Editable Meshes .... (I Was creating Editable Poly's )

If your app is called MyApp, and you want the output in a file called MyApp.log

You could run you app like this



C:\MyApp.exe > MyApp.log



This redirects the output of MyApp to a text file MyApp.log.

Please note this redirects EVERYTHING, so If you are asking a question on the console ...

K, well I tried the code above, using the earth.x file which is in the media directory that comes with irrlicht, and it loads and gets the texture, I Then added a IMeshNode into the scene and it worked, It's not loading the texture, but the node is created and I can see the object ...

Irrlicht.Scene.IAnimatedMesh a = device.SceneManager.GetMesh( "Arrow.3ds" );
Irrlicht.Scene.IMesh m = a.GetMesh( 0 );


If you load the Animated Mesh with the Scenemanager, then get the mesh at frame 0.

Or you could do it all in one line


Irrlicht.Scene.IMesh a = device.SceneManager ...

Irrlicht.Core.Position2Df p = device.CursorControl.Positionf;
p.Y++;
device.CursorControl.Positionf = p;


^^ That code does not stop my rendering, but has a undesirable effect on my cursor ....


Irrlicht.Core.Position2D p = device.CursorControl.Position;
p.Y++;
device.CursorControl ...

C++ Code is not a problem for me to read,

Wat you say makes sese, but I'm not to familiar of any other way to do the rotations, how would I accomplish that another way ??


Thx

If you don't make colorkey, the background of the font ...
