Irrlicht Engine

Uhm... Is it a bug or a feature?
If it is a bug, it should be no problem for Niko to fix it soon...

Any news here?
Is the bug still there in Irrlicht 0.12? Does anybody know, when Niko will add this getXJoint-Feature to Irrlicht?
Thanks.

Since I am not a C++ programmer, but using the Java binding Jirr, I can not implement my own font class.
But it's very great to hear that it is on the ToDo-list now. Thanks, Niko

As it seems, everything works correct with Irrlicht 0.12.0 now, if I set EMF_NORMALIZE_NORMALS to true. Thank you very much for that feature, Niko

You are right... Sorry for that
Now it should work... Any ideas?

Is there any possibility to "antialias" Irrlicht's bitmap fonts? Here is a example of my font (3x zoom): http://www.xenoage.com/temp/font2.png But when I use this font, I get this (3x zoom): http://www.xenoage.com/temp/font1.png It seems, as if all pixels that are not completely black are ...

Here are the screenshots from Ishtm:

You can mail me the screenshots ( andi.wenger@gmx.de ), then I can upload them.

That would be great I've also heard from other people that have problems with this, so it would be really useful. Thank you, Niko.

This is because the normals of the mesh are scaled too, when modifying the scale. [...] That's not a bug in the engine, that's just how 3d engines work. I can not understand that. I thought normal vectors are completely independent from the size of the model - they just give information about the o...

Here are two screenshots. They are from the exactly same program. The only things that are different are the scaling of the room.3ds (first screenshot: 1f, second screenshot: 0.01f) and the camera position (first screenshot: -50f, 50f, -150f, second screenshot: -0.50f, 0.50f, -1.50f). http://www.xen...

More information:
Since I am using the Java-binding "Jirr", I could only test it with OpenGL and Irrlicht 0.10.

This problem does not only appear with scaled meshes.
Create a small TestSceneNode-box with the width 2 or so... If the light source flies around it in a circle with radius of 10 or so, there is the same problem... If the light source is much further away (500 or so), it works...

I have a strange problem with lighting of small models. I searched for the problem in the forum, but could not find something, so here is my description: Since I am using the unit "meter" in my game, most objects have only the size of about 2 units. Many models I am using use other units, ...

As it seems, Irrlicht has still no texture loading support for MS3D?
Niko, why do you not add the code in the next Irrlicht version, if it works? That would be very great and not much work
