Irrlicht Engine

I fixed camera flare for irrlicht 1.4.1 and added some comments and a small read me.


You can download the camera flare for irrlicht here (ZIP, 16.0 KB)

Update: now includes more comments and a function that makes it easy to align with skyboxes!

It's always easier to edit the art files than go hacking around the engine for a function that doesn't really exist.

Paint even has an invert funtion...

*slaps forehead* I feel like an idiot now, I had no idea shortcuts did that. Thanks hybrid, you truly are a legend . I have switched to Inno (fantastic program, highly recommend it) because it was more flexible than the windows counterpart. The solution to adding base directories is in their wiki , ...

JP: Ah, so it's not my computer? and yes, I'm trying to create a simple msi installer so other people can play it :D I'm using relative "files\" , not absolute paths "c:\game\files\" so that's not the problem. A solution would simply be to set changeWorkingDirectoryTo() to the fo...

I started to work on better fallback support in the shader interface. But other things distrubed the work, so it's not yet very far. However, there won't be any additional enum values in Irrlicht. Instead, you'll just choose the transparent material, and Irrlicht will use the best supported materia...

When I call my executable file from another folder, such as: "c:\example\file.exe" When I am in c:, the program looks for files in c:. It never used to do this until I installed some new software (MS WiX, to be exact). I think it's a bug on my computer, not irrlicht. It's the same when I c...

mikademus Has very good points. Materials when changing drivers is erratic and really needs to be worked on. I don't really use shaders, mostly because of the headaches involved, but a fantastic feature would be a cross driver shading engine. I had an idea for the name space video::E_MATERIAL_TYPE e...

Don't trust anything made by Micro$oft. Stick too good ol' C++

Just use "Wolfpack" for the folder, and make everything self contained, as each computer has different user names. Also, put all your art/ contents in a folder. It makes the game dir a lot cleaner. example: driver->loadTexture("art/image.jpg"); So I have your game on my computer,...

My hack is to calculate the frames passed based on total time & frame rate. If it's passed the number, resort to a different animation

I get the feeling that it's the hardest and silliest way of animating a character

Use a plugin to export the file formats for either: B3D, MD3, or MD2. Simply Google the plugins to download.

BTW: try to learn blender. You won't regret it .

mc08: I'm using blender like you and was using the MD3 exporter to create my models.

I gave B3D a try and I had to admit, it looks a little better than md3. Looks like I'll have to swap to it

I have ISceneNode created by addSkyBoxSceneNode(). The textures are loaded by addZipFileArchive(), and then loaded from the main folder. It loads the textures fine, but when I try to call it again, it stays the same. The code is as following: // --- sets & loads the skybox --- void setSkyBox(s32...
