Irrlicht Engine

Just a small update I still didn`t get it working but now I use collision detection so the enemy can see me if I am near him.

Just a quick solution I am still working to get the FOV right I keep you updated

Hi,

Thanks for the reply but I already figured that out that is why the others are working. I have a function that looks wich waypoint the enemy is the closest to and then set a new target. Beside this I have a function that let do make him a round so when at A go to D etc.. I know when the enemy ...

Hi,

I am just clueless at the moment I having a weird acting enemy in my game. The enemy needs to walk from waypoint A to B to C to D and back to A. This is going good when I just say that he needs to walk from A to B or B to C or C to D or D to A. But now it comes the enemy needs to make a round ...

Hi,

Thanks for all the replys it helped me understand it a lot more. I hired the book C++ in a nutshell at a library but it does not explain this situation at all.

Hi,

Today started with classes, .cpp and .h files the proper way. Not that the code going to be more clean because ...

Hi,

I just rearanged my code into a bunch of .h files and everything works fine. But the question that sticks to my mind is why does some projects also have more .cpp file almost every .h has a .cpp file why is that?

Do I need to do this also for my project and why is that? Also how do I do it? I ...

Hi,

Thanks for the reply but I already tried that this draws to triangles one on the place where it needs to be and the other attached to the enemy. Weird here some pics

Now I use vertex so I can fill it with color it easier to use

This is the basic position where it must come

Hi,

I am trying for several of days to make a FOV(Field Of View) but I got stuck all the time.

I have the following code

part of enemy.h

void drawFOV()
{
IVideoDriver* driver = device->getVideoDriver();
vector3df e = enemy->getPosition();
triangle.set(vector3df(0, 0, 0),vector3df(-50, 0 ...

Hi,

I searched this forum and the internet for some simple levels that I can use for my irrlicht game, but not with succes. I wanted to download levels because modeling is not my strongest side and it saves time. So to help everyone out that is in the spot as me here a little bit of help.

A couple ...

Here a bit off code snippet to make a crosshair:

put this following code in you`re while loop but remember to put this after drawAll otherwise it won`t work.


while(device->run())
{


driver->beginScene(true, true, SColor(255,100,101,140)); //Must draw between begin and end. Begin drawing ...

Hi everybody,

I am still working to get collision working like I want but like I said it does pretty much like what I want so here I give the solution what I thought off. Hopefully I help someone with the code.

Collision.h

//Including the files


//defining the namespaces to acces easier ...

Hi,

After rethinking the shoot and started from scratch. I got finaly something working still with the flyStraightAnimator because this works good with straight bullet flying. I changed the billboard with a sphere. And changed some things. He hits the native enemy and then the bullet disapears it ...

So the bottom line is that I should think more about the aspects of colission and try to figure a own colission detection and a shoot meganism?

a little offtopic
I always thought that good copy pasting of code was a programmers way of living why try to invent something that already excist. After ...

Thank you for the clear explanation.

But I don`t understand I realy, because I just use the flyStraightAnimator for the bullit to fly to his end position. But the colission detection happens every frame that is why it is in the while(device->run()) loop. Correct me if I am wrong.

Beside that at ...

I see there are a lot of problems with colission on the forum. I got a little but further but he still doesn`t do what I want.

The checking of colission is going well I can check te enemy now without
errors but the ISceneNodeAnimator* anim = 0; wont drop.

here is some important code:

main.cpp ...

Thanks for youre reply I gonna take a look of what I can use.
