Irrlicht Engine

The rotation part seems to work. The walking part doesn't... the model seems to run off in another direction.

Is it the model that is contructet in a strange way perhaps?? I'm using the Sydney.md2 model..

An easy way of doing this without adding mplayer support to irrlicht is to do it the way that the Lego Alpha Team game does it. It launches a exe file that displays the intro video. And when it's finnished it launches another exe with the actual game.

This is of course the quick and dirty solution.

I've been trying for a week now. My character refuses to walk forward. It walks in some relation to the gaming world. How the heck do I get it to follow its nose??

I've tried to alter X, Y and Z on the position vector. I've tried to use a matrix. But it refuses to walk in any other direction.

If ...

I don't really want to change the irrlicht source... Is there perhaps a way of inheriting the ICamera class so I can "create a new camera" without changing the acctual source of irrlicht??

Now the camera is working quite good. Some details remains. One thing is that it sticks extremly well behind the character. I would prefer to have it like the camera in GTA: vice city. Its a little slower than the character.

But I've discovered that my character isn't moving forward in relation to ...

I've managed to position the camera properly. But for some reason it looks at my models feet. Thats kind of odd. Right?

Suddenly my program has decided that lights are a no show (?) I can't get any lights at all.


node = smgr->addLightSceneNode(0, core::vector3df(0, 0, 0), video::SColor(1.0f, 0.6f, 0.7f, 1.0f), 600.0f);


is there something wrong with my code?? I "stole" it directly from the SpecialFX tutorial.

coool!!

have you figured out how to get irrlicht to create cellshaded graphics??

I can't quite remember what the shading style is called. But the use it in Jet Set Radio Future on the Xbox.

I was toying around with the anim8or render program. And I managed to create a image that looked like a 3d comic book image. Basicly less detailed, "smeared shadows" and a contour around the objects.

So I was thinking if this could be made implemented with irrlicht. So if you are creative with the ...

i currently define an "offset" of the camera (e.g. vector3df(0,30,30)), set the camera target to my characters object and upon rotation using e.g. the cursor keys i rotate the offset of the camera using matrix4. then i set the position of the character plus the offset.

That's a nice tip... but I ...

Hi
I'm trying to create a virtual city, not an extremly detailed one how ever. But a bunch of houses that looks sort of difirent, perhaps a small park.

Then I'm planning to add a character in 3rd persion perspective that can walk throught the city. But I've encountered a couple of problems.

One ...
