Irrlicht Engine

Surprisingly, the hackish cast seems to work. it's not surprisingly and not hackish, sometimes you'll have no other choice than doing such a cast... ;)

Any reason why I shouldn't use it? no, not in this case...
maybe if you do such a cast inside your main loop, because of performance reasons...
I ...

Surprisingly, the hackish cast seems to work. Any depreciation on thiscode? Any reason why I shouldn't use it? Looks too good to be true

Yeah, well I used the new keyword. So here is my class so far:


class CGameEventReceiver : public IEventReceiver
{
private:
CEVENT_STATE mouseStates[2];
CEVENT_STATE keyStates[KEY_KEY_CODES_COUNT];
CPROCESS_STATE processState;
CMouseData mouse;

IrrlichtDevice* Device;
public ...

I am not sure you can directly do this in the editor. The best you can do with a particle system is to adjust the scale, in irrEdit. Perhaps you can find the values you need in the XML/.irr scene file and edit it manually after. Good luck!

Could you be a little more specific?
Are you talking about the built-in GUI namespace (irr::gui) or about a Win32 window? I assume you're talking about irr::gui. In this case, have a look at the API documentation:
[*]Scroll bar
[*]Skin
Good luck!

You can take a look at:
Tutorial #12. Take a specific look at the part that says

If you need access to the terrain data you can also do this directly via the following code fragment.

. Good luck!

Hi :) I've tried to make a simple event receiver class to experience how the whole Irrlicht OOP system worked and to practice polymorphism. ( this being my reacher). The whole thing compiles fine and I thought I had understood it all, but I get Unhandled exception at 0x1010af46 in Client.exe ...

I would like to encourage you to create your own Makefile before using some kind of wizardry :). IrrLicht SDK comes with some examples and you can adapt them to your project. Once you will be fluent with g++ “-I”, “-L” and “-l” options, then you will be able to configure any IDE, Code::Blocks ...

Seeing as there are no replies, maybe I shouldn't use that wizard. Does anyone have a tut for Code::Blocks + Irrlicht + Ubuntu/Linux? Thanks.

My folder has been typed according to the right case, so was "irrlicht.h".

void yourFunction(IrrlichtDevice *device)
{
device->getWhatEverYouWant();
}


If I were to use the above code, does this tell the function that the class (device) is located at this memory address?
Yes. You could read a bit on pointers . I also recommend reading a similar question and an ...

Hi :) I've recently switched to Ubuntu and Code::Blocks and tried creating an irrlicht project with the (surprisingly) built-in irrlicht project wizard. But I get an error at some point:

It tells me it can't find Irrlicht.h, while it is there, in ...

Ok, just tested it my own. The b3d export also does write animations into the file. The bones are moving (check with the meshviewer), but seems to be unconnected with the vertices. Don't know if the file is broken or the Irrlicht loader does not import the animations properly.
The .x file doesn't ...

2-It had about 381 materials, for each leaf and each face of the tree.
Yeah there's the problem. I guess the B3D file uses joints for each bunch of leaves, meaning Irrlicht loads it in separate groups so you can move the joints around without deforming them (for things like moving platforms in a ...

Try setting Material.MaterialTypeParam = 0.5 to fix the transparency problem.

Another thing, the meshes may contain lots of mesh buffers, it depends on the layout of the B3D file. If so then a simple mesh format will give you better results, try converting it to OBJ, 3DS or another static mesh ...
