Irrlicht Engine

There is a work around though. // Mesh irr::scene::IMesh* pMesh = 0; // Mesh Scene Node irr::scene::IMeshSceneNode* pMeshSceneNode = 0; // Create a mesh pMesh = pGame->getSceneManager()->getMesh("media/meshes/NormalMapTest.x"); // NOTE: This is 100% necessary without it the normal map scre...

I think I have something of value to add. I was looking over the code which processes the DeclData block and it appears that it doesn't handle tangents or bi-normals. It collects some information and then does nothing with them. The reason it does this is because the mesh vertices are stored using t...

I figure it should be excluded from the next version of irrlicht because it is discontinued.

It is a very poor choice of api because it doesn't support arrays. This means, that multi-lighting shaders are kinda impossible because you can't pass in arrays of light positions / colours.

Ok guys, this isn't so much of a bug as it is a heads up over using the NvidiaCG implementation (I am using Irrlicht 1. 8 ). You can't passing arrays of float and int arrays to CG shaders. On another note, the CG integration only supports a limited number of data types, mainly ints, and floats. No s...

Ogre3D Supports techniques and passes. e.g. http://www.ogre3d.org/tikiwiki/tiki-index.php?page=Atmosphere+Shader&structure=Cookbook (turns the depth test on and off) @Hendu I didn't necessarily think it would break things for GLSL users. I was thinking more along the lines of adding support for ...

Compiled Irrlicht 1.8 and got my first few shaders up and running. Amazing!! thank you for incorporating it into the engine ^_^ After searching through IGPUProgrammingServices class trying to find out if I could use techniques with multiple passes there doesn't seem to be support beyond the simple v...

Greetings Irrlicht community,

I would like to draw a 2d texture onto the surface beneath a player in irrlicht. How do I do it?

Any and all wisdom on this topic welcomed on this topic.

Here is a diagram to help clarify what I mean.

"Well, the text refers to things like JPEG compression. Colors could be altered in this process. If you use, e.g., bmp or png, there are no problems. Just have alook at example 6 where exactly this process is used." I am certainly getting some weird results then because my colorkeys are no...

I believe that Irrlicht's implementation of colour keying may be quite broken. I found some information about this problem for those of you who are interested. http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/docu.net/Irrlicht.Video.IVideoDriver.MakeColorKeyTexture_overload_2.html IVideoDriver.MakeColorKeyTexture Me...

What about magenta? r=255, g=0, b =255. I am probably approaching this problem incorrectly but I am having trouble using any other colour than white or black. Here is the code I am using. unsigned int meshBufferCount = mesh->getMeshBufferCount(); std::cout << "Material Count: " << meshBuff...

I have made some more content for the game over my university holiday. You can see videos on my youtube channel ' http://www.youtube.com/user/rodentwizard '. http://ri.danoli3.com/uploads/monthly_07_2010/post-14-12805841869107.jpg http://ri.danoli3.com/uploads/monthly_07_2010/post-14-12805842030569....

Definition: A color key is a color on a texture which is not drawn. I am loading directx meshes and I would like to set color(0,0,0,0) as a color key. How is this done in Irrlicht? I am baking models in c4d and all I have 2 do is save textures in the same folder as the mesh. Textures are loaded auto...

I believe I have found a bug in the matrix class. Using the following code causes the scene node to become stuck at 90° and 270° on the y axis. Rotations seems to work well around the x and z axes. here is the code but I am using: float t = pDevice->getTimer()->getTime ()/1000.0f; matrix4 mat; mat.s...
