Irrlicht Engine

OK, it seems I've solved the problem. Now I create mesh in Milkshape and keep all textures in same folder with the model. Then I translate model into .3ds (MAX) format. And Irrlicht opens it with textures! There is one bug in Milkshape (?) - it swaps Y and Z axis, so I just rotate whole world 90deg....

So it means that there is no way in Irrlicht to load multitextured models at all? I found the line in source, module CAnimatedMeshMS3D.cpp: //skip groups for (i=0; i<numGroups; ++i) { pPtr += 33; // name and 1 byte flags u16 triangleCount = *(u16*)pPtr; pPtr += sizeof(u16); pPtr += sizeof(u16) * tri...

Did someone open Milkshape3D (.ms3d) file with textured object in Irrlicht?

So you think Irrlicht couldn't take from .ms3d information about textures and I need to load all textures manually? Nonsense...
Is it mean .bsp format used in demo keeps all textures inside?

But I have hundreeds textures. I can't believe lighting is OFF by default. Maybe my fault that I use IAnimatedMesh? I've static world...

I use .bmp. My code: using namespace irr; scene::ICameraSceneNode* camera = 0; class MyEventReceiver : public IEventReceiver { public: virtual bool OnEvent(SEvent event) { if (camera) return camera->OnEvent(event); return false; } }; int main() { MyEventReceiver receiver; IrrlichtDevice *device = cr...

Yesterday I tried it till midnight, but my knowledge of C++ still too pure. I'll put my code here tomorrow, wish it helps locate my mistake...

Seems it will be next week!

You are right, Jailbird. Engine itself looks nice and pretty easy to use.
That's why it could be great to port it into VB...

As I use DevC++ I could use onlu OGL or Software renderer. I tried last one - result is the same except all mesh is white, not black.

This is exactly what I did. But I'll check everything again.

I create my first project based on Quake3Map tutorial but with Milkshape3D model (I also tried .obj mesh).
All I can see is black scene. Mesh is loaded, I saw it, but there is no textures...
Any help will be appreciate.

After some research I found that using VB with Irrlicht.dll can be done with calling COM methods. Unfortunately I have no expirience with such kind of interaction.
But it's good chance for me to start learn C++...
Thanks anyway.

Hello,
could you please clear for me is it possible to use all functions of Irrlicht.DLL in VisualBasic? (This is the only one language I know, it's too bad for me, I know)
Maybe someone tried it already? Would be great to hear about it.
