Irrlicht Engine

Clear. Thanks, Hendu.

Hi guys. This code should show all entities of a bsp file:     quake3::tQ3EntityList &entityList = q3levelmesh->getEntityList ();     for (u32 e=0; e != entityList.size (); ++e) {     for (u32 g=0; g != entityList[e].getGroupSize (); ++g) {       const quake3::SVarGroup *group = entityList[e].ge...

Hi.
Don't know if it's is a bit off topic. I try.

In the demo example there is a wonderful flame effect on the torches.
I see it comes from additional meshes in the bsp map.
But how the flame, or in general additional meshes, can be included in a bsp file?

Bye.

Hi.
How additional meshes and shaders, for example the flames in the demo, can be added to a bsp map?
Can GtkRadiant/NetRadiant do that?

I'm doing it by creating planes with createPlaneMesh().
The effect is not so bad.
Is this the correct way? Or there is a better way?

Thank you, Hendu.
Is there some example or tutorial?
It's not clear to me how to do it.

Hi guys. I'm using billboards to add trees to my scene. Since billboards always face camera, it seems that the trees detach from the ground when rotating on an horizontal axis. Is there a way to make a billboard rotate only on the vertical axis? Should I implement my own code to get this particular ...

Thanks, CuteAlien. I'll try to post the bsp when I can.
Do you mean material type in the program? I tried many values in SetMaterialType() method with no result.
Or some kind of settings in NetRadiant?

Basically the problem is that lights I add in my program don't affect meshes loaded from the bsp file (only misc_models are affected). I already studied the good shader-tutorial, but it's not clear to me how to use shaders for creating lights. Anyway thank you both for the informations. I will keep ...

Thanks hendu.
It's not totally clear to me what means "using my own shader" for light sources.
Is there some thread or page explaining that?

Hi guys. I'd like to understand something about light nodes and BSP maps. Searching the forum I found this thread: http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=9768 which tells that dynamic lights does not works for bsp and suggests a simple patch on Irrlicht code. The thread is pretty old....

Thanks for your help.
It works well with 3ds format too.
Reducing the number of faces and making a suitable UV mapping the result is pretty good.

Thanks, Hendu.
In fact decreasing the number of faces no triangle is missing.

For the other solution, is there a way to store the object file name in NetRadiant?
I heard about a placeholder entity called "misc_model_static", but I don't see it in my menu.

Made some progress. CuteAlien was right, there were no texture applied on the mesh. I fixed this, but the result was the same with a different color :) This time I tried making the UV mapping inside Blender and then exporting as .obj file with .mtl file too, instead of 3ds. Things go better, but sti...
