Irrlicht Engine

Haven't noticed anything like this.

It's probably easier to remove the camera and create a new one at the start of the maze.

You could try something like this:

// First get 3d line from camera to cursor position:
line3d<f32> line = irrSceneCollisionManager->
getRayFromScreenCoordinates(irrCursorControl->getPosition(), irrCamera);

// Create triangle selector from the node
ITriangleSelector* ts = irrSceneManager ...

I think IrrXML only supports 5 attributes per XML node, and you use quite a bit more in some nodes. Not sure if that's the cause of your problems, but you might try dividing some of the nodes to several ones.
Instead of:

<Property x="-10" y="-10" z="-10" x2="10" y2="10" z2="10"/>

Something like ...

1. Box works I guess, or you can do what there's in one of the tutorials:

mesh = smgr->addHillPlaneMesh("myHill",
core::dimension2d<f32>(20,20),
core::dimension2d<s32>(40,40), 0, 0,
core::dimension2d<f32>(0,0),
core::dimension2d<f32>(10,10));

node = smgr->addWaterSurfaceSceneNode(mesh ...

Didn't test but something like this should work:

IGUIListBox *box;
s32 selected;
const wchar_t *str;

//added items to the box

//now i'm trying to get the string of the selected resolution:
if ((selected = box->getSelected()) != -1)
{
str = box->getListItem(selected);
}
//change ...

Great work, this looks really good!

Small progress update:
I've fixed pedestrian code so they no longer walk on roads and now they properly use zebra crossings. Also I've added support for lightmapping in the editor. Now all I need is some lights! :P

You should not drop scenenodes, instead use remove().

node->remove();

or

SceneManager->addToDeletionQueue(node);

First one can cause the app to crash under certain conditions so you might want to use the other one.

Yes you can use shaders on any material, but you have to set it to each material individually. So something like this:

...
node = smgr->addOctTreeSceneNode(q3mesh->getMesh(0));

video::SMaterial& material1 = node->getMaterial(0);
material1.MaterialType = (video::E_MATERIAL_TYPE)shaderMaterial1 ...

intergrate a physics engine before its too late...

i wanna see ragdoll on those peds :P
Hehe me too! :D Newton for ragdoll effects is something I'm thinking, but I'll have to see if it works.

1. Well I'm not going to stress over lightmaps. If it's too much trouble I'll just go without. I'll take ...

Miniguns, flamers and rocket launchers absolutely.
A device starting with P... wouldn't leave it out for anything

1. DAMN! its pretty close to really be gta2 in 3D! perfect hehe
2. the camera is great!
3. pathfindingis cool too!
4. how much time did you spend on this? are you programming in c++ for long already?
5. the objects have a light when you move the mouse over them, thats pretty cool too!

1. You ...

As a fan of the gta series, I'll take that as a high compliment.
