Irrlicht Engine

Camera, action! ;) Guys, I have a camera that is looking at the center (0,0,0). I have triangle in that position. Now, when I try to rotate camera along z-axis by 45 degrees I would expected that my triangle will be still visible in a viewport but it will be rotated. However, after performing a rota...

Thanks, I've had no idea that software renderer is doing such thing. So much to learn:)

Now I see the difference, it is the problem of camera. In your example it was y =200, in mine y = 100. Now I see the triangle, mesh loader works fine.

Could you tell me one more thing, why the triangle is completly cut off from the viewport when I set up camera y=137 and it is visible at y=138?

Wow, you are fast:) Thank you for helping me out. I've tried your example and it works, I am not able to figure out the difference between your example and full mesh loader which does not work. I did not posted the full source because I did not want to clutter the forum but if you be so kind, please...

Ok, so I've finally wrote my mesh loader, the problem is that I do not see anything after loading a mesh. I do not know how to properly debug the reason which I am not seeing my test mesh. Could you help me a little? Here is the createMesh method:   IAnimatedMesh* YWFMeshFileLoader::createMesh(io::I...

Thanks for a quicky reply!

I just like to know all my possibilities:)

Thanks again.

Hi, I just want to make sure that there is no other way in Irrlicht for calculating normal other than this?   core::plane3df(vertex[2],vertex[1],vertex[0]).Normal   I mean creating an object (plane3df) for calculating a normal seems a bit heavy for me. I know I could just write my own function but I...

I am trying to implement my custom loader class by inheriting IMeshLoader. The thing is that IMeshLoader.createMesh() requires to return an IAnimatedMesh. My mesh will not be animated so I do not know if I am doing it right? Is it ok to write my custom loader inheriting IMeshLoader despite the fact ...

But writing an own loader might be simple as well if you already have your own format. I wonder a little bit how you created your terrain if you already have it in a file as it doesn't sound like you used some tool for it which can export the usual formats? Thank you for your interest. Before I wil...

Try OBJ for example. There is the heightmapOptimize function which may be useful for your terrain. Is this a correct description for the OBJ file? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wavefront_.obj_file Do I need to also calculate normals or will they be calculated automatically by Irrlight? Will be enoug...

1. Depends on the format you are using. If it's a custom format then you have to write a custom loader. What simple common format could I use for my case? This is just a mesh, nothing more. 2. No - that one is special - it does not handle any triangle-mesh but uses some optimizations. That is a sha...

Hi guys, this is my first post here on forum. :) Currently I am just playing with tutorials and would like to ask you about few things regarding terrain and engine itself. 1. I have prepared my own terrain. It is a bunch of triangles stored in file. How do I load this terrain? Could you give me some...
