Irrlicht Engine

Those familiar with branchless techniques know that, in some cases, they can deliver better performance than non-branchless techniques, but why does it seem that this isn’t always the case? Even in the very same examples? The answer is simple: it all depends on whether the CPU can predict the jumps ...

Irrlicht is a work of art, I always try to create something with it, my daily life is trying to do what Irrlicht does on my own from scratch, but I always come back brutally humiliated by how good and easy it is to modify it and create things with it

It works well for me; you can export the model with multiple textures and materials, and Irllicht will load them.

The shadow volume also works very well; it's amazing.

For a moment I was scared, given the default ...

I was having an issue with textures not rendering on a model and I fixed it by disabling the use mishaps flag on the scene node.


thanks, now it's work, but I can only load the first texture slot

I was just thinking about using your engine and switching to Linux, considering it's based on Irrlicht. It's ironic; the comment left that you recommended is similar

Get there, unzip, open the unzipped folder with android studio as if you were going to open a project, sync, run. The main.cpp is compiled and the apk is produced.

Yes, and in fact, when you add more pixels to the edges and enable bilinear smoothing, the smoothing improves, since without bilinear you can still see a kind of seam (you can see the pixels cut off). However, I don't know if bilinear smoothing in Irrlicht softens the edges of UV islands or not

My guess: Sampling itself should be same cost. Uploading texture needs more data, so that is slower. Creating mipmaps can be slower (but also only done once). Needing less texture switches (assuming you also use other blocks of same texture) will be cheaper.

The hard part: Avoiding texture ...

Suppose I have two identical rendering scenarios:

The camera's far plane and frustum culling ensure that only 8 triangles are rendered.
The shader, number of fragments, UV mapping, filtering, and mipmap level are identical in both cases.
The visible texel area is effectively 256×256 in both cases ...

It is a seamless geometry, meaning it can be replicated by duplicating the geometry with the edges joined using any array-type procedural action.
