Irrlicht Engine

It sounds like a nice idea and all to try and bring people together with open source, but it also sounds like the kind of ideas I had when I was a newbie (still am btw) and was bursting with unchecked enthusiasm and I thought I could set out on huge projects and finish them in absurdly short amounts ...

I do not have access to my code atm but what you need is just another kind of input manager that re-dispatches events but uses bool locks to see if that event was already continuously sent. it locks up once it is sent and only unlocks when the event is not being received.

wow those are really nice models

fantastic prices too.

well it is creating a positive result since you are holding it down. I'm guessing what you want is a single pulse?

the bad part is that i have to do it like this... don't get me wrong i'm not trying to make my homework or something like this. :))
Unfortunetly this is how i have to do it, i made the 2 nodes now i have to make a third node in witch to put the other 2 as children and i have no ideea how to do that ...

That does not solve the problem because it is ROTATION. NOT TRANSLATION. IIRC the at target is in global coords, so it is not enough to simply use bind target to rotation.

Again, I highly suggest OP looking at the source for some of the other cameras like maya and FPS camera. I don't know ...

you can also try

camera->bindTargetAndRotation(true);

and

camera->setRotation(startingAngle);

each frame or when the camera moves.

That doesn't solve the problem. You will still need to update target properly to get proper transform for the camera.

I think OP is thinking of the irrlicht ...

Consider defining a measure for advancement, otherwise the question is as meaningful as "which one is getting crispier faster?"

[didn't happen]
well one time my video card caught fire, during the process the ram sticks got a nice layer of black electronics smoke, but they weren't crispy :D [/didn ...

And I really have to agree with devsh, I skipped between engines a lot a couple of years back and I always came back to irrlicht after a while because of its completeness, its flexibility and ease of use, something I never had with an engine like OGRE

Sadly enought Ogre has much more to show ...

in order for skinned meshes to work in irrlicht you must have one parent bone for all bones in blender and make sure ALL vertices are mapped to a bone or animated mesh will not work at all.

this project is not dead. i have had like zero time to work on it since last posted :( :(

also stupid driver instructor... was taking my license test and a truck tried to cut me off at a four way stop... instructor wasn't looking for some reason and thought it was my fault!!! :evil: :evil: :evil ...

um... why did it send me to a spam link.... took my email and gave me like 10 spam mails...

also would be good idea to decouple gfx FPs and game tik FPS, I suggest using the game programming gems clock, bullet uses it.

it is like 2 files, you can just use those two files in your projects, btQuickProf.h and btQuickProf.cpp, in bullet source. works wonders nice and portable, reliable too.

congratulations on the net-press coverage xDan

Newton for me too. They are trying to add hardware support via CUDA (and presumably OpenCL...)

there are decent number demos of OpenCL in bullet source and they are also doing all optimizations (SSE/SIMD alligned attribute array) for that as well

:wink:

EDIT: i chose bullet.

Q:why?

A: one ...
