Irrlicht Engine

Hum, maybe i have not posted the last version (because i didnt check and run the code before post it). I will check.

Well, it was a long time ago, but i forgot to post my face selection to you.
So as a thank you for everyone (and a special thank you to rogerborg), here my face selection node :

I come back with my selection problem :
So i'm trying to create a 3d modeler (something like wings 3d).
I have several custom scene node :
- 1 flat custom scene node per face
- 1 3d line per edge
- 1 square billboard per vertex

The selection of the vertex billboard is working well.

The selection ...

Using Irrlicht's built in collision-detection? That only supports axis aligned bounding boxes, which won't work well for selecting a line.


Yes i am using IrrLicht bounding box collision detection. I am trying to select 3dline, representing edges of some mesh.
I didn't know that irrlicht only ...

Actually i want to create a bigger bounding box, like a cylinder or a big cube around the line. So the user can select the line even if the mouse cursor is not exactly on the 3d line !

Hi there,
I am trying to create a Bounding box of a 3d line, but without working solution.

I have also tried to find the coordinates of the box from coordinates of the two first points (non linear system of equation, a bit hard).

There is any functions or available source code for that ?

Thanks a ...

Hi,
I am trying to create some bounding box of 3d lines (so define by two points coordinates).
Is there already some source code of functions within irrlicht to create that ?

I have also tried to solve the non linear system of equations defined by the equation the two upper point of the left face ...

Or you can just clear the cache and reload the mesh.

In some games, you can open the game console by using a special key (the key next the key 1, main times).

Does the developers just print the std::cout on this 'console', or they create their own string buffer ?

If they use the std::cout, how to redirect or print it in a staticText of the Irrlicht ...

I found that maybe my problem come from the left hand x, y, z axis in irrlicht doesn't corresponding to the right han x, y, z axis of my mesh...

Can i change the x, y, z axis of irrlicht to a right hand one ?

Thanks (i hope you will understand the left, right hand story, actually i don't know how ...

Just a little last point :

These normals are wrong, no ?

Its working great when i recalculate the normals with the mesh manipulator !

thanks a lot !

Well, i have tested all the Material Type, no one works.

About the normals, i have no any normals in my obj file (only vertices and faces). So I will try to use the mesh manipulator to recalculate the normals.

Hi there,

I am trying to load a mesh object (so an obj file) into irrlicht.
When i load for example a cylinder, i cannot view different color for the faces.
All faces have the same gray, whatever i am doing, like moving the light, etc.

I have this :

I'm also trying to link OpenMesh and Irrlicht.
The problem is that OpenMesh and Irrlicht can only read / write mesh from a file and never from a buffer (maybe i am wrong).

So maybe i need to write my own Irrlicht class to load mesh, not from a file, but from a buffer.

There is any other solution ...
