Irrlicht Engine

This is definitely helpful! Thanks for putting it together.

I second that, rogerborg. When I tested it a week ago, it seemed to work as described. On a side note, I just wanted to say that the code was extremely helpful to my research as well.

You guys rock!!

Works like a charm now. Thanks.

I didn't get a chance to test this out, but it may be what you need: http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/docu/classirr_1_1gui_1_1_i_g_u_i_environment.html#a18 virtual IGUISpinBox* irr::gui::IGUIEnvironment::addSpinBox ( const wchar_t * text, const core::rect< s32 > & rectangle, IGUIElement * parent ...

Mastergod, Appreciate the advice however I have spent the last 3 days or so searching the forums and still don't quite get it. I am always hesitate to post, as I truly don't want to waste anyone's time. In re-reading my post though, I didn't mention the Custom Scene Node anywhere other than the titl...

Hi, I've been trying to understand how rotations work. I've found many examples on the forums and tutorials regarding rotations, yet they always seem to cause a given node to rotate around something else. My goal is to understand how to keep a node's center in one location and rotate around it. This...

Ah, yes - my apologies Acki! I do recall seeing that, although I guess I didn't quite get the implication at the time.. I never saw this before your link, but it sure does clear up why my initial attempts placed the image on the back. lol remember the order of the indices !!! to see the face from th...

I've been learning about this recently as well. The order of the vertices are important, as the indices are defining the triangles based on that. This little picture from Hybrid helped me understand it immensely: Also note that you need to use clockwise orientation of the faces. So the following qua...

Suddenly it all makes perfect sense. When I've got it all working, which surely shouldn't be too far away, would you be interested in the relevant part of my code, since I'm probably not the first person who's likely to want to initialise a mesh from a heightmap in this way? This thread has been mo...

The mouse events are defined separate from the keyboard events.

I think the splitview tutorial will help you out. It demonstrates switching between cameras and using a few types of them. http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/tut017.html This would provide a first person camera: ICameraSceneNode* camera2 = smgr->addCameraSceneNodeFPS(); Also check out the Maya camera: ...

Thanks for the ideas! I hadn't seen CoverFlow before - looks slick.

At this point, it looks like I have a lot to learn about how to get the right variables for the various coordinates and indices.

Hi, I have been searching around the forums and API documentation with little luck in finding what I am looking for. I want to load a 2d image into the 3d environment, like the Billboard class. The exception being that I don't want the image to face the camera. I will be using this to dynamically lo...

You may want to take a look at this thread: http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=25815&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=ogre3d&start=0 Personally, I liked this response to the question of which engine to use.... Answer: neither. Don't become reliant on any particu...

I can second that. The API documentation rocks!
