Irrlicht Engine

Well, I don't mind splitting up meshbuffers, as long as I don't need 50 lines of hilariously confusing code to get the indices right :D I believe if you want to use meshbuffers directly and from time to time modify its content, you anyway will need to "dance" around those indices. 8) I ha...

looking forward to the update

In case you have missed it- he posted the code after the screenshot: Test code is here: http://irrlichtirc.g0dsoft.com/pastebin/view/32368373 well, right now device.VideoDriver.DrawVertexPrimitiveList(vertices, indices); does only take lists, not arrays edit: oh I see the improvement for DrawVertex...

very nice, when will a binary version be available ?

oh, he did? I did not see that... gonna read that now

Hi, I render about 280000 vertices in openGL using the Quads type, and it's pretty slow. I know other applications that can render a LOT more vertices without performance issues. How come it's so slow the way I do it ? I render them using driver.DrawVertexPrimitiveList(); any way to drastically impr...

hmm weird, when I switch from openGL to Direct3d, my vertices aren't being drawn anymore
edit: uh direct3d can't draw quads ? damn..

Okay, thank you
I managed to get colors now.

Do you know how many vertices can be rendered in a scene with an acceptable framerate ? I tried ~720000 (in Quads mode) and it lagged like hell, but I need to draw a lot for what I've planned

doesn't irrlicht have global lighting? like sunlight... ?

hmm okay, thanks that works, though I can only use one single color for a whole vertex list. :/ edit: ahh ! lighting=false ! Damn, so is there a way to apply some form of colors/texture to a list of vertices, but still have lighting on? btw, here is a better-to read piece of code: private void addTo...

pixartist, where do you want me to asnwer your question, in this thread or in IrrlichtLime' thread (in Project Announcemenrs), where you also asked the same about vertex color? Well, I presumed you were busy, and did not have time to reply to the question, since it does not really have anything to ...

1) 2)
I don't use node, I manually draw the vertices. As you can see I can set Vertex.Color. My question is why this does not work
3) Yea, sorry I meant a vertex list / polygon

Okay, first of all, I use the IrrlichtLime .Net wrapper. So I have List of vertice and I can render them, BUT: 1) When I change the color of a vertex, it won't render colored: vertices.Add(new Vertex3D((x + chunkX * World.chunkSize) * Render.blockSize - Render.blockSize / 2, y * Render.blockSize + R...

Creating vertices: private void addTopFace(int x, int y, int z) { uint i = (uint)vertexIndices.Count; float gx = (x + chunkX * World.chunkSize) * Render.blockSize; float gy = y * Render.blockSize; float gz = (z + chunkZ * World.chunkSize) * Render.blockSize; float hb = Render.blockSize / 2; vertices...
