Irrlicht Engine

I have made some tests here. The problem you having is more a conceptual problem i will try to solve. As you know, quads are created by a line starting from Point1 to Point2. This line orientation is fixed to scenenode rotation. Then when your car run in right line, node will create correct ...

The way its looking, appears that you are moving the node, but not rotating it with the car. Remember the quads are created aligned btw Point1 and Point2, two vectores RELATIVE to scenenode. In demo i sent, i know this problem occur, probably coz the camera dont pass rotation to its childs ( camera ...

I uploaded file again. Also ( i guess ) i eliminated the need for NET Framework. I was compiled with /clr

I have tested file download and now its ok.

I compiled it with VC++ Express, maybe i forget to set something on compiler. I dont noticed, coz i have Net Framework installed :|

Youre right, file is corrupted. I will post it again tomorrow.

But its code have nothing special. You can get the code inside TerrainRendering.cpp and try to compile ...

I updated RibbonTrailSceneNode.zip at http://br.geocities.com/paulo_cmv/ with a working example, made over TerrainRendering Irrlicht sample. You can download it again for some testing.

This topic is of my interest to. Can you be more spcific? First, i dont know how to use texture projections in irrlicht.

I forget to say. Try putting

setEnabled( true );

at end of code. For some reason i put a setEnabled( false ) at scenenode creation, then its not enabled automatically. If its not work, then i will put an example.

My card here is a MX 440, 32MB and it works well. I will make a litle working example to send to you.

kallaspriit:
means you using our alpha at startup with value 0 ( completely transparent ).

you can use a starting alpha greather then 0, i sugest 100..200
also, i only tested it in DirectX, but i guess it will work well in OpenGL

i have a FX 6600TD 128MB AGP

Happy to see more people using Meta. Its a great software to me ( a lazy modeler ). Its fast to learn the basics and start modeling boxes. I love the way camera turns around with right mouse button. I alwais use a single view, switching with F1, F2...

Im using basically Meta, (misfit) http://www ...

I solved all ( known ) problems i got. You can download RibbonTrailSceneNode here

You can find a lot of info at top of .h file. Feel free to test others scenenodes i have written. CLODSceneNode, CQuadTreeSceneNode, CLensFlareSceneNode.

I have made a similar scenenode, but never finished it coz i have a math problem i cannot solve. I need to store a new point only if the angle btw the last two points and the current tire position is greater than, lets say, 5 degrees. This way, stored points become near when turning a curve and far ...

Search forum for CLODSceneNode. Its a scenenode i made some time ago, thats fade mesh LODS with distance. I used it for trees, then the custom material uses alpha and vertex transparency. This material also support vertex alpha and lightmap at same time.

look for a property ActiveCamera or method SetActiveCamera()
