Irrlicht Engine

Hi guys, I'm working on a small game framework for my game. Since the game itself is also targeted on older machines (or laptops, same deal), I have to find some way, to manually disable some graphical features. This means essentially to check if a certain material can be rendered "as-is",...

Okay, thanks for the info anway

Tested it, and it fails just the same, this time while creating the texture (I dont even get to the locking part :/)

Seems like I have to drop that Threading idea, dang it :/

Hi there, I'm kind of stuck with something: I want to create an ITexture from pixel data (aka bytearray, or byte pointer, etc.). As described here , I could create an IImage first, and load an ITexture from it then. However, this has 2 disadvantages. First, it’s a waste of memory, and second it does...

Whew, any hint how to do so? I'm not that familiar with Irrlicht yet, still getting used to it. Anyway, what format uses tangent meshes then? Google turned nothing useful up for me :/ Also, any comment on the way I described, splitting the animation into several meshes, and somehow sewing it into an...

Hi there, I have a specific question about the IAnimatedSceneMeshNode, and the IAnimatedMesh class. There is one major problem I have, concerning using Shaders with them. Is it possible to use the MeshManipulator->createMeshWithTangents() with animated Meshes somehow? I thought of using getMesh() to...

My bad, sorry, didn't saw that one.

Hi there, I recently started to work with Irrlicht, and there is one thing I'm wondering about for quite some time now: Texturemanagement. My problem is best described with a basic game example: You are loading a level for your game, with a ton of different textures (manually loaded via getTexture()...
