Irrlicht Engine

Pretty much the final layout. Only some buttons and the timeline are missing now. http://img38.imageshack.us/img38/2080/interfo.th.png Uploaded with ImageShack.us EDIT: Come on guys, no GUI constructive/destructive criticism whatsoever ? PS: The only reason I don't start releasing sources/demos righ...

Thanks for the idea. I didn't need a separate SceneManager, did this instead: Works as intended.

Guys, SRSLY, maybe this guy works for like ... ahem some chinese "made on a freight" game company :D, and his boss asked him to look into a cheap easy to use engine that has an android/iphone version. The guy found irrlicht, but he doesn't have a good command of English (or is just lazy), ...

Well, in my animation system the plan is for an interface (IProceduralMotion for eg ?) that has special access to the timeline and bones and can be extended to contain ... whatever kind of function is needed.

I have made a custom SceneNode (a 3 axis gizmo), and it's pretty much functional, however it's currently obscurred by the selected node that it's supposed to affect.

So, quick stupid question: How do you force a single node to be drawn on top of the whole scene (regardless of Z ordering)?

Interesting, I'm working on an animation system too, got the blend trees pretty much down (but they're only composed of binary "modifiers" for now), and there's no IK in mine yet either (but it's postponed it for now). I'm stuck in the conversion tool phase however, since: 1) I don't want ...

I took a few notes from Unity, Torque and 3DS max, and came up with this. I'm still copy-pasting code for now, and there are bugs galore ( pic contains a bug :) ), but it's a start. BTW, I ditched Delphi personal (EULA incompatible) and the interface is now maintained with Lazarus. Here's a shot of ...

For the last 2 months I've dropped most of my overly-ambitious projects and instead (in my spare time, a few h/day) coding a generic (although Irrlicht biased) skeletal animation library. Basically I need to reuse as much crap as possible (sucks being a one-man-band) and therefore want my keyframes ...

Finished it 2 hrs ago. returing to the party code tomorrow, maybe...

Oh, yeah, have a HAPPY NEW YEAR!

What I'm working on right now is not supposed to ever break the API at all since it's an animator. IAnimatedMeshSceneNode* node = smgr->addAnimatedMeshSceneNode( mesh ); ISceneNodeSkinAnimator *skinAnimator = createSceneNodeSkinAnimator( node ); skin::animation::CAnimationPlayer *test_anim = skinAni...

Well, I seem to have managed to finally rip animations through irrlicht from an X model to a file; also managed to get the transformations to work (somewhat) properly and have displayed an animation both with and without an animation mask. Now I have to see exactly where my math went wrong (IIRC irr...

The frame variable of the, for example SJoint::RotationKeys[index], is a f32 , however in pretty much all the animations I've worked with, the frame times could very well be u32 . IIRC irrlicht does not add data to those key arrays after the mesh is loaded the first time, and interpolates the two mo...

[sarcasm] Selling/Buying used games is piracy because developers (publishers) don't get money. Lending games is piracy because developers (publishers) don't get money. Piracy is considered to equal theft and is prosecuted as larceny in the US. Larceny is a CRIME. Ergo Buying/Selling/Lending (commerc...

IIRC In this case, ISkinnedMesh joints will have to have their matrices updated by hand. Then you can call skinMesh(). You can look at CAnimatedMeshSceneNode.cpp from the irrlicht sources on how to do this. EDIT: Maybe I'm wron though, so keep waiting a little more for a proper answer form a dev or ...

setJointMode(EJUOR_CONTROL)

and use the bones as you would use any scenenode with
setAbsolutePosition(), setPosition and setRotation().
