Irrlicht Engine

Google just released a PBR solution called "Filament". More details here:

I wish it didn't require clang and ninja... but w/e.

Blarg! http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=51571&p=299506&hilit=ogles2#p299506 Found this thread (which I authored a while ago, it seems... >_>). I wanted to compile Irr for Raspberry Pi and need to disable ES1 and make sure it found the EGL headers. "IrrCompil...

I noticed that Debian GNU/Linux no longer supports ES1 at the library level, only ES2 and above. We may need to add an option to compile Irrlicht-1.9 without ES1.

This is awesome!

I had NO idea that there was a repo out there with TONS of Irrlicht demos. *drools*

I'm enjoying browsing through all of the examples, keep 'em coming!

@Mel @CuteAlien

Wow! Thanks for the input!

Mel, based on your suggestion, does that mean I'm going to be using the "IMesh" classes to create a custom polygon? I'd appreciate a little more detail there, if you don't mind.

Thank you!

I was trying to have 2D sprites running across 3D platforms with a camera aligned to the X and Y axis only. I'm wondering if I need to map the sprites as textures onto planes for this to work best?

Again, I'm looking for something that can point me in the right direction.

Thanks!

Howdy! Been a while since I've posted, but I'm looking into building a game and want to use Irrlicht for a 2D/3D hybrid level design I have in mind. I've looked over the tutorials on the website, but I feel the 2D tutorial is a little terse. I wanted to know if there were some threads here I could l...

Will this compile for Linux? The videos look promising!

@ChristianClavet

So you recommend B3D for both static and animated meshes?

@ChristianClavet

Thank you, I will keep that in mind.

*brain explodes*

So.. umm... formats do things... use B3D for characters... OBJ is obese, use 3DS (the non-Nintendo one) if I can for static models...

Got it.

@Vectrotek

Cool! I will check out the project later on.

Are you utilizing the B3D format for any of your models? OBJ? If so, what's been your experience with them?

@CuteAlien

I see... so I would need to make sure the vector art is scaled appropriately before exporting it as a bitmap. Good to know.

Thank you!

Awesome!

Could you talk about how you achieve these effects? I'm currently going through the tutorials and would love to learn more about achieving these kind of results.

Thanks, man!

Don't mean to necro an old thread... >_> Because we don't have SVG support natively, would a vector art pipeline be to create a texture in inkscape, and then export it as a PNG? I think Blender has native support for the standard, but I was just curious how I would go about implementing vector-based...
