Irrlicht Engine

I created a topic sometime last week about modernizing an old third person camera code snippet which you might find helpful. Although its in C++ and not C# but you might be able to read it enough to make a port.

rogerborg, I tried compiling your example today and quickly discovered that it wasnt compiling. Apparently because vector3df does not have a function rotationToDirection() and I even checked the docs to confirm this.

[maddog39@desktop ThirdPersonCamera]$ make
g++ main.cpp -O3 -march=core2 -I/usr ...

It appears to assume that ICameraSceneNode provides a full camera implementation. That's no longer correct (was it ever?). If you want to do that now, you'll either have to base your camera on CCameraSceneNode, or encapsulate one.

Yes I was assuming when I tried to write my implementation that ...

I'm still not quite clear on what your suggesting. I attempt this: But that didnt solve the problem.

I got that, was already solved as I dont need to extend IEventReceiver anymore, thats the only code modification I had to make. I was talking about setTarget() which is required by the code but cant be called and does not allow the class to link.

So I suppose I should have to reimplement that function; and I didnt realize ICameraSceneNode was already doing multiple-inheritance with IEventReceiver, so it should be safe to just overload OnEvent.

[Edit]
I have no idea how I would ago about rewriting that function and frustrated by the fact ...

Hey everyone,

I recently wanted a third person camera and attempted an update version of keless' camera based on ICameraSceneNode and IEventReceiver. However for the life of me I cannot get this thing to link. I keep getting undefined reference to ICameraSceneNode::setTarget() errors. Any ideas ...

I got the model off of a free 3D resource site and it was somewhere in the range of a meg. The person who originally made the model probably didnt do something properly (as you stated) and I have since dumped it. Other models seem to be working as expected.

I am developing on/for linux and am dying to use this. Any word on when the OpenGL shaders will be finished/released? Assuming there aren't any as none were included in the archive linked to in the first post. Although OGL support was mentioned later in the thread.

Hey everyone,

I've been playing around with irrlicht lately and keep running into this problem with loading models where the particular side in which the camera is looking at will disappear and the model then doesnt look whole and solid.
