Irrlicht Engine

I have a problem with rotating my scene node correctly. The task is: I have a target, where the unit should go. So I set up the direction vector by substracting the position of the scene node from the target - nothing difficult until here. But how can I get the rotation out of this vector? The nativ...

I'll think about it, but one good suggestion: Carl Granberg - Programming an RTS Game with Direct 3D is very helpful (some c++ and direct 3d tutorials should be done before).

Well currently I am rewriting the code. I am not happy about the tile based pathfinding and want to implement polygon based pathfinding. Overmore the terrain generation and texturing will be changed. I think I'll use precomputed heightmaps and textures (which will be done similar to now, but will al...

Georgians problem has to do with the map.hlsl shader. When you change Output.RGBColor = (c1 + c2 + c3) * l; to Output.RGBColor = (c1 + c2 + c3); the terrain should be visible( but without fog). Perhaps I reduce the amount of the terraintextures - then it is possible to render the terrain with 4 text...

The way I see it I have to fix a lot of bugs. The terrain uses some features and I have to implement some fallbacks... But the x1300pro should render the terrain - my radeon 9700 does it too and I think the x1300pro is much better... What does the console say?

Mmmh that's strange. I know from three guys that the prog is working on their pcs... One question: What type of graphic card do you have? It should support 5 texture stages and if it doesn't - well I don't know how the program handles this...

Today I build a first "playable" demo. Nothing worldshaking, but the things, which are already implemented, can be discovered now. The minimap isn't done, but the basic pathfinding should work. Group movement and formations are still missing. If you move more than one unit, then they'll al...

My project is still in the pre alpha stage but anyway I want to post some screenshots. It's called "Krieg der Magier" ("War of the mages" in english, but the title looses elegancy translating it..) and is a real time strategy game. Some further information can be found here . I'l...

Perhaps you could use the DotProduct: C# Vector3D Vec1 = new Vector3D( 1,0,0); Vector3D Vec2 = new Vector3D( x, y, z ); Vector3D tempVec = new Vector3D( Vec2.x, Vec2.y, 0 ); float zAngle = 90.0f - (float)(Math.Acos(-Vec1.DotProduct( tempVec ) / tempVec.Length)) * NewMath.RADTODEG; Vec1 = new Vector3...

Creating or wrapping the tile based terrain from the code snippets forum would be better than setting indices up to INT32...

It's not possible with Irrlicht.Net as far as I know. Take a look at IrrlichtNETCP - it's a wrapper which has CustomSceneNode support. In the Sdk is also an example

I'll post some pictures in the announcements, when the project is ready to be shown. Don't like these posts, where are only some good screenshots given, but no functionality is implemented. I'll work on this first

I made some further tests. Setting the constant down works perfectly, but setting it to 5 crashes the application every time - even when I set the only first or second texture stage. The SetMaterialTexture(int, texture) doesn't seem to be the problem. The scene.DrawAll() is the problem. When I comme...

So you got it working by setting the Max texture constant to 8? What could be the matter, that it's not working for me. The hardware shouldn't be the problem. As I already told I got a directX example with more than 4 textures working...
