Irrlicht Engine

have you found by chance a solution for this?

I am under a similar issue and would appreciate any tips.

Thanks

hey;

I just wanted to know from a more experienced member what would be the best solution and not how to implement it.

If everyone was to do everything on their own, a forum such as this would become pointless. Also, i couldnt find in the forum any reference to "Bullet + bmp", so at least now ...

yeah, I see what you mean;

What I will try then is getting the mesh out of the irrlicht terrain and pass it to bullet, even though this wouldnt be the most optimized solution.

What would you do if you had this issue anyway?

Regards

Hybrid;

Thanks for the response, but i am not quite sure what you mean by "lock it".

Do you mean that once the bmp data is loaded, the internal data structure can be considered as a raw file?

My main concern here is how to transform this bmp data into raw since bullet seems to only like raw ...

would you mind telling us what you did? I have similar problems.

Thanks

Actually i couldnt find any function or way in neither irrlicht or bullet of converting bmp to raw of vice versa. does anyone know an effective way of doing that in real time?

Thanks for the help

i didnt know that irrlicht had a native conversion function. i will try that.

thanks for replying

hey, i have a question.

Why does irrnewt need a lib and dll file to be able to be compiled if i added all the cpp source files from svn into my project?

I integrated all the cpp files with iphysics and it worked fine without the necessity of an iphysics lib and dll, but irrnewt is not letting me ...

Hey, anyone knows if Bullet can somehow load bmp heightmap files directly?

I know the latest version can load .raw files, but i use a heightmap generation library that only generates bmp.

Im sure that there also must be some way of passing the loaded bmp triangles from irrlicht to bullet, but i ...

Has anyone here had any luck integrating this with any physics library?

This is such a nice module that could be really awesome working together with some physics library such as newton or bullet.

I think that as it is now, it is very limited to what you can do with Irrlicht collision system ...

Guys, I'm kind of having the same problem from buhatkj with this wrapper, which i am suspecting to be newton's fault after all.

When i try to retrieve the body mass, in order to set the gravity force using
NewtonBodyGetMassMatrix(body, &mass, &Ixx, &Iyy, &Izz);
the values are corrupted and do ...

hi,

I was able to successfully compile the code but when I click any mouse buttons the program crashes to desktop in the following line:
>> actor->addForce(forceVec);

I am using irrlicht 1.4 and Physx 2.81 with the latest system software drivers installed (8.04.25).

Any help would be ...
