Irrlicht Engine

Yeah I just made my own C++ wrappers around Winsock2 and then when I compile on Linux is super easy to re-compile.

Thanks for the replys!

(p.s. I don't get email notifications from this site, something messed up?)



RakNet ?

Oh and btw: Winsock is almost POSIX compatible. IIrc you have one or ...

Figured it out.


std::string a = core::stringc( txtID->getText() ).c_str();
String^ s = gcnew String(a.c_str());


Works like a charm!

i'm trying to convert getText to type "T"

Such as this (but this doesn't worky)


template <class T>
T getName (std::stringstream ss)
{
T result;
result = ss.string();
return (result);
}

I still get the same errors with:


std::string a = core::stringc( txtID->getText() ).c_str();
std::stringstream ss;
ss << a.c_str() << std::endl;
cli::array<Byte>^sendBytes = Encoding::ASCII->GetBytes( ss.str() + "," + ship->getPosition().X + "," + ship->getPosition().Y + "," + ship->getPosition ...

I'm a noob I know but it's still kinda cool. (thanks NASA for the SS model)

I'm still working on controls at the moments. I'm trying to build a nice 3Rd person chase camera with smooth transitions.

I felt like showing off my noobness in the 3D world. LOL

Slave,
Winsock2 looks interesting. Is ws2_32.lib still used for linking?



Bate,
Does the IrrNL let you have access to the lower level methods? Currently I have 3D model information stored in a database and I populate my Scene with the information coming from that database.

I guess what I'm asking ...

I'm tired and maybe someone else can see something I'm missing.



/* This doesnt work. */
core::stringw pname =txtID->getText();
std::stringstream ss;
ss << pname.c_str() << endl;

I searched for "networking" and "network libraries" and came up empty.

Linux is a no-brainer as I would just use UNIX sockets and be done with it. Not to mention all the native libraries out there.

For windows, I've been looking into few various methods.

I got namespace System::Net::Sockets ...

I'm like 95% there....

I'm not sure if I am posting this in the right section or not but I figured sense I'm a total noob I'd start here.

A few months ago I tested a ChaseCamera class for the XNA framework, and it compiled and worked well out of the box. It had some nice dampening effects as well ...

Not worried about booe. I'm used to idiots on the net. Anyway, I'm new to both C++ and 3D stuf and just wanted to make sure I understood the API.

On that note. I built a small class (using the Cockput code) based on code I found around here. I also added some logic to determine which direction you ...

Hello all!

I've been doing a lot of reading on the API. I'm picking things up well but I wanted to make sure I understood some default settings when adding nodes.

Am I correct when I say that addAnimatedMeshSceneNode( mesh ) creates a node, unless specified, at a default position of vector3d(0,0,0 ...

Good stuff.

Rei, I got your latest code to compile just fine under Linux and using the latest Irr libs.

One change...
I had to change

sprintf_s(temp,"%d",intToConvert);

to

sprintf(temp,"%d",intToConvert);

Apparently sprintf_s is a mickeysoft thing? Hmmm not sure.

Anyways, works like a ...

I wondered the same thing. KDevelop has code completion and so does Visual C++ express 2005/2008.

Second Vector3df is where the camera is pointing....I think...
