Irrlicht Engine

Use a PNG with an alpha channel.

Open up another video hardware accelerated game, and if it cashes it's simply dos box.

If it cashes only when opening irrlichts examples it's irrlicht. However if it crashes while only running your app, it's eating memory that it shouldn't. Use a debugger to make sure it's allocating memory right.

Protip: right click #include, Open Document.

If you can't find iostream (lol wut?) you really need to reinstall your compiler

Is it safe to use clock()? A script kiddie tool I used a while ago it simply used ticks (ie, clock()) to do get sub second time. Some research seems to indicate it's bad, it might change if you swap to another computer that fails on a multiple of 66MHz I want to have a character affected by many fo...

I'm amazed by your work ultramedia. I hope you open source your code, I'd love to take a sniff at it. I also like your sphere LOD, I tried to make a dynamic custom sphere mesh yesterday but gave up shortly because of laziness. One thing I was wondering about was: what format are you going to use to ...

DtD: thanks for that, I've sorted out that bug in v89, as well as some music bugs

JP: I'll add the native resolution feature in the next version. I take it your on a big screen?

Thanks for all the good reviews, It's about time I started a new project

Virion: that looks fantastic, and I actually like the idea of this being the mascot. I was expecting a badly modeled anime character that can't be vectorized or stylized in anyway On a side note, it would be great to use in examples as you could use box hit testing Edit: what did you use to model it...

Game programing (Cosc360) is a fantastic paper, defiantly worth the three years at Otago to get there ><. Otago has a great compsci department, we beat Auckland a lot of the time in the prog competitions, despite our small size. In Cosc360 we program in C#, but as you tell my code is pseudocode Than...

What's the best way to construct a state manager for a game? For my game paper, we used this: //in game manager file: class GameStateMgr; //in current state file: class currentState extends GameStateMgr //when making a state: mainStateManager = new currentState; As you can see, it has its advantages...

In version .87 I made the things most people wanted: a save function and an escape button. Pressing escape gives you a menu where you can save/ resume/ exit If people play through it in 15 minutes, thats a bit short. my target for v1 is 50 levels. Which seems a bit modest, but people would probably...

Great art comicsteam

I'd like to see a tutorial on how to add bones to a mesh, I've wondered but fortunately never been in a position where I need to actually to it

Blindside: thanks for all your help, it's made the game a lot better :) Download v.85 here (7.33MB) / XP installer I've played around with the lighting properties of the puppy and so far nothing has made it better. I'm hoping when irrlicht 1.5 comes out Xeffects wont return streams of errors so I ca...

Puppy! is a simple platform puzzle game, similar to kula world/ gem hunter. It features its own level editor, original score and 20 playable levels OpenGL doesn't work 100% on some cards (due to a bug in irrlicht), but when the next version comes out I'll update it. Tell me what you think! Download ...

I get the same syntax error.
