Irrlicht Engine

Great work on this template! I have the template compiling and running properly on the iPhone 3/4 simulator and device! Was very easy to get going for the iPhone. Only problem I have run into is that I am unable to get it to run on the ipad device v 4.2 Release mode. It gives me the error: "GDB...

Just in case anyone else needs the code. Here is what I did to test for a collision between a ray cast from the camera and a meshbuffer bounding box. IAnimatedMesh* mesh = smgr->getMesh("../../media/test3.x"); IAnimatedMeshSceneNode* mynode = smgr->addAnimatedMeshSceneNode( mesh, 0); aabbo...

ah you are my savior!! thank you that works like a charm! wooooot

hmm it seems IMeshBuffer doesn't have the method getTransformedBoundingBox, only ISceneNode appears to have it?

Why not just use a bbox test, as it's much faster and the geometry of the sphere is far from the actual geometry from the scene node. Initially that is what I tried to do. I load my model and then I scale it so that it is the size that I want. When I call mynode->setDebugDataVisible(scene::EDS_BBOX...

If I use a dummy scene node instead of a sphere or cube, will I still be able to use the triangle selector for collision detection? If the scene node doesn't have any geometry then it won't have a mesh right? Don't I need a mesh in order to use the triangle selector method?

Thanks

I have something that appears to work. For each meshbuffer/joint within my scene node I create a SphereSceneNode based on the position and size of the meshbuffers bounding box and set the material to vertexalpha and then make it invisible. Then I create a triangle selector for it so that I can use g...

Hi, I have some code written that will give me the ISceneNode object that has been clicked and it works great. However, I plan to have all my models in one ms3d file where I use meshbuffers to deal each individual object inside my scene. Is the best way to do this to draw an invisible box around eac...

Thank you so much! You were 100% correct! I managed to use the joint system in conjunction with the meshbuffer collection to use shaders on separate groups of the model!! Here is my code in case anyone else ever has this same problem. I basically just added the below code to the shaders example to g...

Hi, I have a model that I created in milkshape that has 3 groups. I export the model as a DirectX .x file format and load it using irrlicht. All of the groups are loaded as Joints which is great. I applied a shader to the entire mesh just to test and it worked great. Now what I want to do is get one...

One more question regarding this. There is a user property field that I am able to set in 3ds when creating my model. Does the irrlicht importer for any of the model types make use of this user defined property? I would like to be able to attach some meta data to my joints for use later. I can't see...

Great! thank you, joints!! exactly what I was looking for!

Cheers

Hi, I have looked through the tutorials on how to load models and it is very simple. I am now trying to figure out how I can find out how I can identify each limb within a model. So for instance, if I create a model in 3dsmax that is a simple human body with head, arms, torso, and legs. I have label...

Ok so is it the custom scene node tutorial that I should use to draw my own primitives?

Thanks

This is how I draw a triangle in opengl, How do I do this same operation using irrlicht? I can't figure it out. It seems like it is easier to load a model then to draw a triangle? lol Thank you in advance! glBegin(GL_TRIANGLES); // Drawing Using Triangles glVertex3f( 0.0f, 1.0f, 0.0f); // Top glVert...
