I would be very interested in seeing how to do this. I have been waiting to try out porting a game to use Kinect until Microsoft officially supports something but I think it would be neat to try out even before hand. Great work. Cool! As long as it's useful to someone, then I'll get the write-up fi...

Irrlicht + Kinect

Hey all, I've just gotten Kinect working in Irrlicht! I'm just writing up a quick tutorial on how to do this - unfortunately, Windows only. Would this tutorial be something people would want here? A quick rundown, if anyone wants to try and get things going, without waiting for me. You'll need: - A ...

Re: Kinect (Natal) in Irrlicht!

Wow, awesome :D you should create a new thread in the project announcements for this Thanks Radikalizm! It's only a basic implementation... but that's not really the point, the fact that it works was the biggest thing! 90% chance it's a fad - it will die out in a few years. Programming & making...

Kinect (Natal) in Irrlicht!

Hey folks, I hate reviving old threads... but there aren't any others in the Forum (checked with the Search tool, so hopefully I haven't missed any!). Anyway, I've *JUST* gotten Kinect working within Irrlicht :-D I'll write up a quick tutorial and my code that works - it's ugly (so very very ugly) B...

Thanks for the reply, BitPlane :-) The source image from the camera is 320 x 240 and the destination texture is the same resolution. I thought it was the power of 2 problem - I've had that before, haha - but it doesn't seem to be the case... I've just tried it on another "gaming" PC with a...

Same Problem

Yet another revival of an old post, for me... but I'm suffering the same problem. On my main dev' machine, everything works perfectly, but when I transfer the release executable my laptop, I get the same problem as EvilBob. Something else I noticed is that on my working machine, I've set the texture...

Thanks Ducky, that's what I was doing, but as I said in my edit, I was doing it wrong.
The texture was repeating, because I'd told it set the initial rectangle as the size of the screen, rather than the size of the texture.

Such a stupid mistake! Lol :roll:

Can you post how you scaled the texture? Which overload from the draw2DImage did the trick? I've tried looking at the link, but can't for the life of me make it work. Thanks! *** EDIT *** Lol, nevermind, I had the wrong bit of code in the wrong place, hahahaha. It now works, and in case anyone's int...

Strange Camera Collision Problem

Hey all, I'm just using a simple level (6 plane meshes to make a basic box room), exporting using IrrB and using Tutorial 15 to load an Irr File. This works fine, but as I move around the room using the FPS camera I hit random "Invisible Walls". I thought it might be something to do with t...

Sorry to add to an old post - but a couple of people have asked some questions about getting this to work with newer versions of Irr and CV... well folks, I've been working on this for a few days and have cracked it :D The first thing is to make sure you've added the include and library paths to you...

[Solved] using an FPS cam :-)

When initialising the camera, you can set it as an FPS cam with the minimum details (speed etc). A slight change to the case statement (adding some squiggly brackets) and you can set the position, rotation and any other details that the camera contains in there. scene::ICameraSceneNode * camera = sm...

[Solved] with thanks to randomMesh

Talking this through with randomMesh on the IRC chan, it's actually a pretty simple fix! In tutorial 15 (loading the .irr file) there's a switch statement. By adding an extra case to search for a camera, you can then set that to a camera object and you're away. scene::ICameraSceneNode * camera; ... ...

Getting Camera Information from .irr file

Hi All, I've been learning Irrlicht for a few days, along with irrb and Blender, and most things are going great. The problem that I'm currently having, and can't seem to find a solution for, is how to get the Camera information out of the irrb generated .irr file and into my Irrlicht "game&quo...
