Irrlicht Engine

Welcome, Daniel :D I guess I'm (probably?) the only one here who currently has an app using Irrlicht on the iOS app store and am still working on it's development, so I am very excited for Daniel to be working on metal. It shows that Irrlicht is taking a step forward, and that my app may not be inc...

"Hört hört!" ( = "listen listen!" ). I do NOT want to complain, but do you really want to take that burden? I know this is a long discussion, but you / we should make the most out of the least resources ( meaning developers and time ). Let Apple be Apple and go on with the real ...

Hi there,

thanks to CuteAlien for introducing me to the community, I'm happy to help - or try to help

Glad to be part of Irrlicht, after working with it since 2012!

Best wishes,
Daniel

I won't support Metal because I think its stupid and I legitimately hate Apple, but I will use MoltenVK to translate Vulkan API (once I finish that) calls to Metal API calls and make the Mac OS and iOS users pay for the difference in balance. I don't really like this kind of argumentation. "O ...

Hi there,

will irrlicht be extended to support the Metal API on iOS until then? Or will irrlicht run on legacy/deprecated APIs then?

Hi there, we're building two iPad (iOS) Apps within the ogl-es (unstable) branch so if you specify what the problem ist, maybe I could help you.

Thanks for your response!

Is there also an tutorial on how to embed irrlicht in an Adroid Activity, without being a fullscreen application?

On iOS we load Irrlicht into a single UIView in out whole Aplication, to surround it with tables, Buttons etc.

Hi there,

is thre an up-to-date tutorial or example to get Android running an IrrlichtInstance?

Daniel

But.. Why? Why isn't the iOS directory in the main version?

Hey Guys, we were developing with an older Irrlicht-Version so far, but now we want to upgrade to 1.8.1 We Sadly recognized, that the directory called "iOS" has disappeared and there is only an MacOSX directory. Why went the iOS directory away? Compiling for iOS using the MacOSX project is...

In case you use this code to pause the rendering... The hole Programm/App is sleeping as well, isn't it?

I'm not abled to pause the rendering without pausing the App too.

Is it Possible to pause the Irrlicht-Device and the render loop without pausing the complete App/iPad?

When we use yield() or sleep() the hole iPad sleeps.

Thanks.
