Irrlicht Engine

Hi everyone,

I declared a

core::map<core::stringw, core::map<core::stringw, core::stringw> > m_data;

and then I try to retrieve a value in the second map

const core::map<core::stringw, core::stringw>& set = m_data[group];
core::stringw retValue = set[key];

But it doesn't work...

INIFile ...

Hi,

I would like to make a function that allows user to save his game progess at anytime. I was thinking about serialization but I don't know much how to achieve that in C++.

I found Boost serialization library but I wonder if there exist something more automatic. I mean like in java langage where ...

There is no way to avoid dynamic lights ? Then how to light up an entire scene ?

How I can get a correct shaded node with just ambient light ? I mean like on this screenshot :



In spite of trying many things with material, my cube is fully white.

Thank you, I'm going to try this

i used 3d world studio for a short time, and there is an alpha map. just you make it in realtime (you can even export it XD)

Indeed you're right. But I'm confused because I still don't have the alphamap in the folder where I have exported my map to DBO format. Would it be embedded in the file ...

Is there a way to acheive texture splatting without usage of shaders ? I found some informations about Sprintz' irrlicht which would implement this but there is no link to download it.

For those who already used 3D World Studio : did you understand how texture splatting is working in this software ...

I started my app with irrlicht containers...

But after some tests I would say that std containers are faster (I made my test only with maps so I'm not sure it's the same for all)

However in my opinion the difference is insignificant in most of usage cases.

So there aren't any disadvantages in comparison to standard containers ? I mean in performance terms.

Hi everyone,

I'm new to Irrlicht (but it really seems to be awesome ^^) and I was just wondering why the engine has his own containers instead of using c++ standard libs ?
