Irrlicht Engine

Bit of a bump, but GPG6 and this thread have inspired me to give the Component system a crack. Over the past couple of days, I'm almost at the point where I've got all my creation stuff in place (I'm following more of a GPG approach with the ComponentTemplates and EntityTemplates, with a manager to ...

Cheers for the help guys, and Merry Christmas! For starters, I'm not at all worried about realistic motion just yet - like I said, I'm just using the whole thing as an experiment. I figure once it all gets working I can come back and write the "moveTankProperly" functions. By the way I probably ...

Slight problem.

So I'm attempting to make a very simple tanks game (in the spirit of the one I was writing in GameStudio years ago and with pyglet earlier this year), and I decided to try and use IrrPhysx to make everything that much more immersive (and let the player blow stuff up better, of ...

Cool idea, but it's a shame I wouldn't even know where to start Maybe next time. Good luck to everyone else!

Wow, quite a bump, but it's not as if this doesn't deserve a little more spotlight. I have a question that should be easy to solve, but hard to pose.

I quickly discovered that defining classes in one file and everything else in main() created some serious restrictions. A bit of searching brought me ...

This is possibly the first post on this forum I feel I have any semblance of authority discussing :P

I'm kind of starting out with C++ too, but picked up C-Script a few years ago and have been using Python at Uni for all this year. I'm like you, in that I like to get out of depth to learn things ...

Tell that to the Third World.

Merry Christmas!

Update on my current predicament - it's working!

Although getting it to work felt very scrappy. First of all, AK47's extra #pragma comments DID fix those external symbol errors, but I was still getting that mysterious "cannot open file 'PhysXLoader.lib', despite the folder it was in definitely ...

Hello people,
im new here.. have been using Irrlicht recently n i think i can use it properly now..

The problem is that while using IrrPhysx im getting the same linker errors
Exactly same boat for me :(

I tried including those 3 pragmas, but then I get this:

1>IrrPhysx.lib(IrrPhysx.obj) : MSIL ...

Mkay, well I removed the top 4 directories from that include list (too many couldn't hurt though, right?), and the top of the main source file is exactly the same as the example (including #include <IrrPhysx.h>) plus:

#pragma comment(lib, "Irrlicht.lib")

Interestingly, if I try and run it on my ...

JP himself! :D

Okay, you were partly right. Mentioning that perhaps I hadn't included Irrlicht made me remember the #pragma comment(lib, "Irrlicht.lib") that shows up in the tutorials, so I added that and it cuts out the third error. Now I'm left with the first two, which are clearly something to ...

Cheers for the response. You always get a bunch of noob questions on these forums for complex things, and I'm loathe to sound like one of them :P

Sorry, that last post was a bit rushed because I had to run off to work. I included the ones I said first, and it didn't work. Then I included CommonCode ...

Hi guys! First post after lurking and using Irrlicht for about a week (loving it so far).

I'm really just messing around with Irrlicht atm (made Pong ftw), and decided to try it out with a physics engine. Basically I'll use whichever engine has the greatest ease of use and most documentation, and ...
