Re: The value of ESP was not properly saved across a functio

You'll see problems like this if your includes, libs and dlls don't match up. You probably have an old DLL knocking around in your search path

Re: Loading text from XML file bug

In CShip's constructor are you actually copying "name" and storing it, or are you just using the pointer that's passed into the XML reader? At some point the XML reader is destroyed and that memory is freed up and overwritten, so if you're not copying it you're asking for trouble.

Re: Irrlicht source

Still hate git... its just bloatware and all I need and want is S - V - N! (Period!) I actually prefer Git because it means every user to maintains own branch/fork then pushes the code back to online repositories, this encourages everyone to contribute as there's no real boundary between "offi...

Re: Alt freezing rendering Problem [Windows]

If I remember correctly, if we were to stop this from happening then the user would also be unable to quit the program using ALT+F4. The correct way to do it in recent Windows versions is by using a low level keyboard hook, you may need to add that to CIrrDeviceWin32

Re: Help with loading a GUI created using the GUIEditor

If it doesn't work it's most likely because IrrXML can't load 64-bit UTF. Try converting the file in a text editor.

New website and some downtime

Hi all I'm replacing the html on the home page with Wordpress, so there might be a little downtime. It will also look a bit ugly until Yoran has fixed my horrible CSS, and some stuff will be missing. The old html will live here until it's been transitioned across. This should be complete within the ...

Re: Question about Irrlicht license

The license says that if you use Irrlicht's source code then you need to include the license if you release your source code. If you're using Irrlicht's source in your project, just rename license.txt to Irrlicht-license.txt and mention Irrlicht and the license file in your readme. If you aren't rel...

Re: Shrinking Irrlicht Exe Size

1) Open IrrCompileConfig.h and comment out everything you don't need; software renderers, directx drivers, file loaders and so on. 2) Compile Irrlicht as a static library (as you already are doing) 3) If you're using Visual Studio, make sure you're using the shared version of the c runtime libraries...

Re: Irrlicht's OWN file formats?

Re-joining this party late, haven't had as much time as I would have liked so can't really contribute to this at the moment. However, I was browsing this thread and would just like to pipe up and say that if a future binary mesh format is going to include other files like textures and shaders, I thi...

Re: 50% CPU during Demo app

See the GUI editor source code, if I remember correctly it uses either Device->yield() or Device->sleep(2) to prevent Irrlicht from hogging all the CPU time.

Re: Software renderers not repainting window in OS X

We need a developer who is familiar with Cocoa. Apparently we need to create some sort of bitmap source, some sort of presenter object, then somehow tie the presenter to the window. If I remember correctly the data should be copied to the bitmap source in CIrrDeviceOSX::present(), then when OSX repa...

Yeah I meant the attributes for the individual items and CGUIPanel for the scrollable area. If they don't do what you need then just ignore me :)

Re: Need help optimizing my gui element.

Why not use the one from the GUI editor? It's not the fastest thing in the world, but it's extensible and does almost the same thing (from what I can tell)

Re: getFileList / removeFileArchive

I guess it's because the VFS doesn't know if the real filesystem is case insensitive or not. It's certainly a real bug though, specially on Linux, OSX and mobile devices.
