Irrlicht Engine

Following on from PolyVox, I wrote a couple articles in my blog about generating Minecraft-ish levels (and I used PolyVox to build the illustrations). I also have made available for download and early version of the chainable-module noise library I used for the posts, in case you are interested.

Yeah, it looks like I can make the LightManager work, with a little bit of work. I guess I just sort of automatically passed over the LightManager interface in my search, since what I'm trying to do isn't necessarily lighting-related. Thank you.

Hi, sorry to trouble everyone again. I'm trying to figure out the best way of setting shader constants on a per-scene-node basis, rather than just per material. I searched and found http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=43936&p=251239&hilit=set+uniform+per+model#p2512...

Ha ha, yeah, I was totally doing something wrong. Sorry to waste the board space. :D In the process of re-working the isometric mechanics to a hex system, I had re-written the code that queues entities and sorts them back-to-front, but forgot to clear the queues first so each frame it would just re-...

It shouldn't be a halo-ing problem, since the alpha is premultiplied, so the background is black. I've built a script and deconstructed the TGA image down to 4 separate grayscales of the color channels and viewed them to ensure that they are properly pre-multiplied. Filtering doesn't seem to be the ...

I am currently using a MinGW build of Irrlicht built using the instructions at that link to include D3D9 support, and I have no trouble running the samples that use shaders in either D3D or OpenGL mode. Exactly what kind of errors are you getting?

I'm currently evaluating Irrlicht for the purpose of reworking my game engine back-end. The game engine is a 2D isometric with certain 3D elements, and is currently implemented directly on top of OpenGL using SFML. I'm wanting to build it on top of a more abstract interface to allow for using Direct...
