Irrlicht Engine

I - for instance - wrote my own 3dsmax importer - supporting of course smoothing groups. But as there were so many other things missing in IrrLicht, I moved now to Unity3D where I can now directly import entire FBX scenes.

Thanks for the answer. Ok. This works! But what is now the best for reloading? I see that in the scene .IRR file there are already properties for each animatedscenenode which seem to be duplicated in each exported mesh file. On the other hand just loading the scene IRR file does not load the mesh da...

I create some nodes with "smgr->addAnimatedMeshSceneNode(AMesh)" but saveScene() does not save them at all.
CIrrMeshWriter::writeMesh() is never being called. What I'm not understanding?

Again, thanks. This does it!

I have a node which shows properly with scale(1,1,1)
When I do then the color turns to white.
Which "update" function I'm missing? btw: i'm using only vertex colors.

thank you. problem solved.

hmm. when a matrix holds
1 0 0
0 -1 0
0 0 -1
then I expect scale to be {1,-1,-1}
invScale is then the same and invScale.Z is then -1 and not +1..

so the problem is invScale.. just debugging..

You're right, I also never saw wildmagic being used somewhere - was just an idea. Maybe my general understanding problem arise only from the fact, that I started 3D developing before D3D existed. So I never ever used left-hand coordinates at all. With grouping I expected the "parenting" li...

I'm getting: { -0, -0, 0 }

Of course I can "localize" the coordinate frame but I still don't understand the logics. Don't flame me now, but after using the DLL for 1 week, I have the personal feeling that somebody started to write a 3d engine without any deep experience on any other 3d software packages or reading b...

Why does this fail? I would expect somewhere 180 degrees?!

Somehow I don't understand the logics behind the transformations being used. Background: I want to "group" nodes which are already positioned with it's own pivot in the scene. So I create a dummynode and position it somewhere in the scene. When I just "parent" some child nodes to...

Hmm. AFAIR there were cases where irrmath.h was not included at all. I forgot if it had to do with DLL or the samples.
Weird, but I removed this define again and interestingly I can compile the DLL!? Maybe I have to investigate this again.
