I found it is a problem with loading plugins when there are multiples of them in one file. Until i correct it, you can simply manually execute irrMax.mzp from the maxscript menu once after max started.

I've started writing a maxscript plugin to export .irr scene and .irrmesh
You can download it here , put irrMax.mzp in your plugins folder.
I did it in max 2009 but should work on 2008, and may work on max 9.

Indices start with 0

Thanks !
3ds max start arrays and loops at 1 and not 0. I will decrement all indices by 1 and it should work then.

For animation i have to search the api doc and sdk to find how irrlicht load them. But afaik irrmesh does not have a type (like tangents, 2tcoords ...

hello,

I'm currently writing a full scene exporter plugin for max for irrlicht.
I need help for the mesh export (irrmesh format)

Here an export of a simple box with smoothings groups:

<mesh version="1.0">
<boundingBox minEdge="-25.0 -25.0 -25.0 " maxEdge="25.0 25.0 25.0 ...

Your reflection camera should not have a wider fov than your main camera ! It have to be the exact same camera, with position and rotation reflected. (you need to flip the projection matrix too, or flip the reflection texture, vertically).
Then if your render target for your reflection camera have ...

Got it to work.
I first call drawAll() once with all my root nodes set to invisible, so it draw nothing but do animations. Then i manually render my nodes with render() , so i also need to manually cull scene nodes.
Camera animation is now smooth, here is my code:
(note: all my nodes are directs ...

I get it to work, and i use a global parent node for each pass with nodes that need to be drawn in actual pass as childs, so it become very easy to hide/show nodes at each pass (see code below).

But i've got a problem:

The animation of the camera fps is jerky (nothing to do with fps wich is around ...

Thanks for your answers !
I will try to create multiples nodes for each meshs for each renderpass, with one scene manager, so i won't need to modify materials and flags in a loop for each nodes, only set visible the nodes i need.

Batch export is possible ! With panda exporter maxscript tool

I've imported the .x mesh in milkshape and re-exported it in .x, and it works. Like hybrid said, that confirm the problem is coming from how the .x is writen by pand exporter, wich seems differents from others.
I will try kW X-porter.
after reading over the thread again I'm little confused now ...
