Irrlicht Engine

I found the problem. I had to rotate the node by 270 degrees on the x axis. But this still leaves me a bit confused as I have set up the projection as ortho. Is a plane mesh geometry flat on the z-axis and spanning the x and y axis? Or is it flat on the y axis? I thought the first. irr::scene::IAnim...

Is there something wrong with this code? I can't get the hillplanemesh to draw on the screen. irr::scene::IAnimatedMesh* bgMesh = scene->addHillPlaneMesh( "background", irr::core::dimension2df(1024,512), irr::core::dimension2du(1,1) ); if ( bgMesh ) { irr::scene::ISceneNode* bgNode = scene...

Thank you. I turned lighting off in the set material. Works fine.

If you need to set the material before calling draw3DLine to give it a color, then what does the color parameter do?
Because it doesn't seem to make any difference. I seem to need to set a new material each time to change color of line drawing.

Personally I think the Devs are doing a fantastic job with the engine, the onus is really on us to serve them up with some great screenshots and videos to post on the site. I more than half agree. Besides screenshots and games etc, the onus is on the whole community to start providing patches and n...

I came to the conclusion that inter-class communication in my next project will be done using a single message queue That is not actually a conclusion. It is called a "decision". Yea? I think I'll try this piece of code once I'm back home ... got no idea if it really works, but it should....

I only had a quick think, but isn't the table incorrect? Excuse me if I misunderstand but for the list, if it takes O(N) to access the middle, must it not take O(N) to insert in the middle? You need to iterate to the middle first to insert a new item. If it is a sorted list, it will be O(logN). Wher...

Initially I have simply used array everywhere rather than list. If I want to iterate over the array, I grab the .pointer() to the data of the array, then iterate over it like a normal C array. I believe this is much faster than iterating using irrArray. At the same time, I can get direct access if I...

The way Sudi showed should work.
Declaration in the .h file
Definition in the .cpp file

I was thinking that the project settings should be set up to compile each of the configurations into different lib and dll files. Why when I compile each separate configuration does it overwrite my previous compilation? Personally I am going to change each configuration to output a different file e....

First point: wall_tex = driver->getTexture(wallTex.c_str()); cout << "TEX DONE\n"; if (!wall_tex) { cerr << "BAD TEX!!! " << wallTex << "\n"; } Why are you trying to output a NULL pointer? **EDIT** My mistake.. the names are all too similar! And are you sure you are not...

MeshSceneNode* nor COctTreeSceneNode* don't implement clone() because clone() is implemented in ISceneNode* and those two are just derived from it IMO. No it's not. virtual ISceneNode* clone(ISceneNode* newParent=0, ISceneManager* newManager=0) { return 0; // to be implemented by derived classes }

Thanks Darktib. I installed MinGW 5.1.6 which has mingw32-gcc-3.4.5 Gcc is not bad, but gdb ( the degugger) is not as good as msvc debugger. Then I might just debug with Visual Studio, but I still would appreciate a Code Blocks project with debug ability setup in the project and libraries linked cor...

We need bitplane back! Don't be a rogerborg bitplane, don't be a rogerborg

If you love someone you will set them free. If they don't return you hunt them down and shoot them!

Have you completely formatted the drive before installing windows? Yea I reinstalled by booting the CD. I tested the SPARK demos again, without recompiling them. They are working fine for now (now I just have the stupid shockwave error). I will let you know what happens after I install VS2008 and s...
