Irrlicht Engine

I was thinking there would be a function that I was just not noticing, which could take opengl data. I wasn't planning on using SDL for this problem, but if I had a working SDL+irrlicht project, I guess that might also lead to solving my problem here if in a much different way. What is the differenc...

Could someone please show me a helloworld type irrlicht example where irrlicht only knows of and renders to an OpenGL context that is given to it? I would like to use irrlicht as a pure graphics library, and use another library for keyboard input, etc. I would like to use SDL or Allegro for the non-...

Hi, I'm looking for a tutorial on setting up Irrlicht with SDL on android. Could anyone point me to a good one? I think I would like to get user input by means of SDL. Any advice? Thanks.

I have tried to install PAL using box2D, ODE, and Bullet, using all sorts of variations. I have also tried to get irrBullet to install. None work. I have tried on 2 seportate machines. Is there a regression in irrlicht, ubuntu, gcc, cmake, or something that I am not aware of? I would post all of the...

While bullet-physics was originally installed using the methods described at http://www.warp1337.com/content/compileinstall-bullet-physics-engine-276-svn-ubuntu-910-howto and PAL was attempted unsuccessfully via methods described at http://www.adrianboeing.com/pal/install_generic.html , although sti...

*Not sure where this should be put, so an admin might want to refile it.* I am having difficulties installing PAL using Bullet-Physics under linux with premake. I installed bullet and irrlicht with no problems, but PAL wont seem to work and is complaining about HULL.cpp. I'm also a little confused a...

No, pitch is the full width of an image line in bytes. This includes additional space at the end of the line, which is outside the visible range. Ok, so it should never be any larger than (Width*bits_per_pixel+32bits). Where the 32bits are the max left over after whatever is used per pixel less tha...

got it. thanks!

I am assuming that the pitch object in the virtual class IImage is dot-pitch. Is this for sub-pixel data being averaged onto the physical display limitations? Look in CSoftwareDriver.h You will find video::CImage* BackBuffer and IZBuffer* ZBuffer. You could use CSoftwareDriver::createScreenShot but ...

You could just have an enum and set it to the current animation. You could even throw that into a struct or class to keep one per animated object.

Ah, ok. That's kind of what I was guessing, but why do that in a mainloop? Aren't those stack operations (allocation and release) costly if repeated that much?

hybrid wrote: both result in an internal backbuffer image in memory, which is then blit into the main framebuffer, e.g. by SDL, X11, or the Windows window support.

Where is this image in memory stored? Can I access it as a multidimensional array or a dynamic linked list?
