Irrlicht Engine

Thank you, this was indeed the case.

Hi, I have created the following draws a custom scenenode which: Draws an object at the camera target which scales so the size in pixels stays the same. Creates a directional light The Light: Rotates with the camera so the light is always to the left of the object Is always at a fixed distance in pi...

thanks for your reply, Ill try that today.

Hi all, i was wondering how i could ensure that a scenenode is drawn in front of everything else. im using directx not opengl. I tried playing about with: m_material.ZBuffer = irr::video::ECFN_ALWAYS; And: m_material.ZWriteEnable = false; Unfortunately every thing i tried resulted in the node being ...

I was using 1.7.2 and upgraded my project to 1.7.3 yesterday, havent seen the problem since.

thanks

hi im trying to resize my device, now i get errors and eventually a crash. The error i get is the following: Direct3D9: (ERROR) :All user created D3DPOOL_DEFAULT surfaces must be freed before ResetEx can succeed. ResetEx Fails. pVideodriver->OnResize(irr::core::dimension2d<irr::u32>(width, height));...

Hi In CD3D9Driver::reset() the pID3DDevice is reset, i believe the check for the result isnt in the correct place. I believe the code should be changed: HRESULT hr = pID3DDevice->Reset(&present); /* Code to be moved*/ if (FAILED(hr)) {         /* All the error checks */         return false; }  ...

The following functions are called even if ExternalWindow is set to false SetActiveWindow SetForegroundWindow This causes the program to hang when using a child window handle, i think a check should be placed: if(!ExternalWindow) { // set this as active window SetActiveWindow(HWnd); SetForegroundWin...

I used the CTerrainSceneNode as a reference, but i dont see it storing or removing any mesh buffers to a cache. Now please correct me if im wrong, but isnt it so that you can optionally add meshes to the mesh cache and if you do then you should make sure you remove them when dropping the mesh (when ...

Hi, I created a scenenode which dynamically loads/drops some meshbuffers, however im having some trouble with dropping the meshes. Now i noticed that my application has a memory leak, I use the following code to drop the mesh:   if(!m_pMeshBuffer->drop() {         CString sMsg;   sMsg.Format("%...

Hi,

This is looking pretty nice. I was wondering what the status of your project is, since your last post was in June.

I would love to use tesselation, will you be releasing some code so we can all play with it?

Of course your right missed that Ill update my first post.

Hi, I was looking into the CTerrainSceneNode, I found a few lines of code which could be simplified: line 629: const f32 distance = (cameraPosition.X - TerrainData.Patches[j].Center.X) * (cameraPosition.X - TerrainData.Patches[j].Center.X) +                               (cameraPosition.Y - TerrainD...

Hi Im trying to deterimine the distance between the camera position and a bounding box. I want to know if the bounding box is in front or behind the camera. So i tried the following: //Determine the distance from the camera to the closest edge of the bounding box AbsoluteTransformation.transformBoxE...

I think that if this is possible the following function might not be needed anymore:   irr::video::SExposedVideoData data(m_hwnd); m_pVideoDriver->beginScene(true, true, 0, data); as every thing can just use the hwnd set in the device. Although you could do a quick render to a different HWND this way.
