Irrlicht Engine

Links were broken, now fixed.

OSL is interesting, does anyone have any idea how or if that could be integrated into Irrlicht? I looked at the GitHub project page, but there were very little details on integration. My opinion: OSL is meant mainly for ray tracing. E. g. on the github page it says "OSL does not have a separat...

I had written a scene node which allows you to automatically draw such a path by attaching it to another node. It was supposed to be included in the engine, but that never happened. :( There's the thread about it: http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=50765 You can still use ...

If your shader does not use the variable, then the compiler will optimize it away.

I guess it's a false positive.

I'll try re-uploading it without the example binaries.

The garbage collector shouln't be an issue, unless you are using an IrrlichtLime <1.5.
We replaced most of these simple classes by structs, so they now live on the stack and aren't handled by the GC.

All official Irrlicht Lime examples are written in C#.
You can use a converter like https://roslyncodeconverter.azurewebsites.net/ to convert from C# to VB.NET.

In my opinion C# is suited better for writing 3d apps, and if you already know VB.NET, it shouldn't be hard to learn.

There's the svn: https://sourceforge.net/p/irrlicht/code/HEAD/tree/
There are also some git mirrors, but they aren't up to date as far as I know.

You're right, shadows are messed up with d3d for some reason.
In a test application, they also make the hud disappear for some reason.

What? Since when are stencil shadows disabled for d3d?

If you make any improvements on the IrrlichtLime library, please tell us about them so we can add them to IrrlichtLime if we like them.
Please also tell us if you find any bugs with it.

Looks like it's down again; link does not work.

You can set a separate render target for the depth.

I do have one question though, for the most part it's pretty simple converting code samples from C++ to C# but there's one thing I've been forever stuck on, a third person camera. Any suggestions? Is there a specific tutorial for a 3rd person camera? But usually, it should be pretty easy to port co...

Hello! I'm one of the developers of IrrlichtLime, and I'm happy it's being used. In case you find any problems with it or if you have any suggestions, please don't hesitate to ask. By the way, you said you're project will be released as a DLL. I guess you know that IrrlichtLime has both x86 and x86-...
