Re: Path finding with edge detection and ray casting

Yes I know, for now it's only the basic algorithm, there are improvements possible. On the top of my head, when I see how it behaves with different shapes I could try to cast a ray between each pair of the path's nodes and if there aren't any obstacles, delete the nodes inbetween.

Re: Path finding with edge detection and ray casting

Not yet because I made it with C# and I'd rather code it again in C++ before doing some benchmarks (with C++ I can do some optimization and I already have an A*).

Path finding with edge detection and ray casting

I wrote a pathfinding algorithm which uses edge detection and ray casting. It's quite simple so I tried to explain it in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRcY0IoOWiA. I guess I'm not the first to come up with something that looks like this but I couldn't find anything on google. Let me kno...

Re: My first android game (but with Unity)

I took down the game as there were many bugs.

I finally found out how to use the android emulation so I got to test another new game I made with unity (so hopefully bug free). Here's the link if you want to try it : https://play.google.com/store/apps/deta ... inbowSnake

My first android game (but with Unity)

I guess it's not very well seen to talk about games made with another engine on an engine forum, but since a noname like me has next to no exposure I can't get people's feedback. Just to clarify, it's not a marketing campaign :lol: because it's not a "real" game, I made it only to teach my...

Re: IrrExt - Is now up and running!

Maybe a little late :( As I understand this message (with my little experience on windows programming), you're using a method from a library that you either didn't link with your project or linked at the wrong moment (the order in the project -> build options -> linker settings -> add, is important)...

Re: 3rd person camera with Bullet

Thanks, now that I think about it, it makes perfect sense. Making stupid mistakes like that and spending time over it might be the only thing I dislike about programming.

[Solved] 3rd person camera with Bullet

After weeks of trying to write a basic 3rd person camera I need some help and an aspirin. I have succeeded in making a camera which follows an Irrlicht node but now I can't get my camera to work with a Bullet body. My math skills are a bit rusty so don't be mad at me if I make an obvious mistake :) ...

Irrlicht 1.8 light and terrain scene node bugs

I already made a topic here http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=49252 about my problem with spotlights. I came across a bug with the ITerrainSceneNode's position/rotation. Basically it doesn't work the same way as the other nodes. For the position I guess it's normal becaus...

Nobody uses spot lights with 1.8 ? A working example could save me a headache :wink:

Re: Bug with Irrlicht 1.8 shadows

Basically I'm doing : ILightSceneNode* light = smgr->addLightSceneNode(); SLight lightData = light->getLightData(); lightData.OuterCone = 45; lightData.InnerCone = 0; lightData.Type = video::ELT_SPOT; light->setLightData(lightData); But as you can see in the video it still does that point light ligh...

Re: Bug with Irrlicht 1.8 shadows

I think you are printing the EOL *before* you print the text. It should be after because that is when the text is displayed. So "location1" is being printed at the line with "rightNextToLocation". Yes I used endl the wrong way :oops: Now I'm pretty sure that it's the first smgr-...

Re: Bug with Irrlicht 1.8 shadows

Now it runs but I still have that waiting time at a strange location in my code. Even when I comment out everything audio related it stops at the same place. I don't understand at all what's happening, let's say my main looks like that : /*beginning of my main*/ cout << endl << "location1"...
