Irrlicht Engine

Once again Rogerborg, you're spot on. I pulled my math from the lind3d<T>::getMiddle() function, I don't know if the math there is wrong (or just works for that situation) but you may want to give it a glance if you ever have some free time.

It's a shame I can't send a beer through the internet, I ...

I have an issue with my camera and I cannot figure it out. The following link has both the executable and extremely stripped down source code.

First run the executable. When it loads, zoom your camera out with your mouse scroller. Then, hold down ...

Hello, I've been using your Scene Node in a project I'm working on and while it works quite nicely if I need a static lightning animation between two points, it does very little for instances in which I'm using it between moving targets. Something as simple as updateEndPoints(core::vector3df start ...

Ah, makes sense, thanks a ton!

The short answer is yes.

However, there is a lot of ambiguity in what you are asking. A "loading zone" is something that you code and develop on your own, which is outside of what Irrlicht is conerned with. I believe that you want different "areas to load" in your game, but you still want to render ...

check check check and check. Ended up reformatting, fixed everything

Thanks a bunch!!! I will try all of this when I get home.

One quick question though, can you explain this further, I don't quite understand what you mean:


Also, the triangle selection stuff is going to be pretty expensive. Once you have the map built up, you should be able to precalculate most ...

So here is the code for my function:

void NPC::searchPath(vector3df currentPos, s32 distance, int treeDepth, vector<line3d<f32>> pathPositions)
{
// We got to 0, so we're done searching in this part of our tree.
if (treeDepth == 0)
return;
// Else, recursion!
else
{
// For all angles (at ...

First off, this isn't related to Irrlicht at all, but I know there are many tech savvy people here. Thanks in advance for any tips you have to offer.

To help those who may be searching for the same answer, all i had to do was change EGDC_WINDOW_SYMBOL in my code to EGDC_3D_FACE.

I looked at the source in CGUITabControl.cpp and it looks like the color comes from the following line of code:

color = skin->getColor(EGDC_WINDOW_SYMBOL);

But when I do something like this...

IGUISkin* skin = GUIEnv->getSkin();
skin->setColor(EGDC_WINDOW_SYMBOL, MENU_COLOR_TEXT);


the color ...

I understand all that, I was just curious if there was some obscure/more abstract way of setting the font that I could not find. Especially since merely setting the skin would apply it to any control without the ability to set an override font (an undesired effect).

Ideally the tab control would ...

How is this done? I do not see a way to do so. Thanks.

If you're using Visual Studio 2005, you want the 2nd overloaded draw2dImage function (2 / 4), it should read something like this


driver->draw2DImage(background, rect<s32>(leftX1, leftY1, bottomX2, bottomY2), rect<s32>(0, 0, bottomWidth, totalHeight), 0, 0, true);

-Where background is your image ...

Hey everyone, I essentially want to know if there is a smart way of doing "tall grass" like they do in Call of Duty (picture above). They are essentially just cards and I want to know if there is a good way to do this in Irrlicht. I understand that we could just ...
