Irrlicht Engine

Yeah. It's the time I started to think CuteAlien was more of a foe than a friend

It took a lot of work and I'm glad there is some history to my struggle. It's a good resource anyway.

CuteAlien is still a good man. It just takes a little while to understand and get to know him.

I realised I'm sending an IsKeyUp on every keystroke now

So I am attempting to change the active camera when a key is released. The way is to set KeyDown[KEYS_MAX] to 0 and KeyUp[KEYS_MAX] to 1. The check works well and the virtual Toggle outputs when I release the key.
INPUT_EVENT no longer receives a key input. All the code is happening so fast within ...

Check out the Doom 1 source code on GitHub and you will see the two largest files containing a bunch of look up tables. Think back to Windows XP when data was possibly stored on a HDD. It's clever to me, but this was back pre-2000 when a tool calculated a bunch of lighting, visibility and entity ...

Your journey in game development has been challenging, trying out various engines and languages but struggling to create what you envisioned. Focusing on C++ and Irrlicht seems like a practical choice. It's okay to take your time and prioritize learning. Remember, every attempt teaches you ...

AI would say I use the light coming off my mobile phone screen to type in the right keys to send you a block of text to the sourceforge servers. That data would be downloaded to your computer from the servers, that are most likely stuck in a dark room with a cooling fan running, and then delivered ...

Why am I laughing?

wizard4 = a luser

I wondered why I felt there was no need for IRC/Discord/Forums.

I've used MSVC, GCC and Clang (M$, Linus and Goggle). I've tried tool chains too with little success. I'm comfortable with whichever as they all work. It takes time to understand an IDE and the compiler/linker options, so it depends what I'm doing. So far I've always built a program for my own ...

I'm sorry... Do I see a Quake3 bsp example map running in perfect isometric with a filters applied and also the source? This man is a genius.

Yes

If I can believe Noie the executable was successful. Side note: Irrlicht has long been a single dll and at the moment I'm more glad it worked, even with the "copy and paste" tactic.

I did installed the right i686-w64-mingw32-g++.exe and installed the dev packages. Inside C:\cygwin64\usr\i686-w64-mingw32\sys-root\mingw\include were the right headers. The demo works on my machine. I doubt it'll run on Noie's.

I'm not sure between static and dlls, so I have to hand over a bunch ...

I'm not new to Linux, but I am new to Cygwin. In the installer you can opt into downloading the source of the i686 program. Linux always had devel packages to install if you were programming. I now have the direct.h header file but C::B for another reason cannot find crtdefs.h that is located in the ...

I just tried now and x86 and x64 both work. How odd I tried a few weeks ago and dlls couldn't be found

Hello. I'm actually asking a question rather than talking ****.

In my attempts to *cough* work with somebody, I've hit a 64/32/x86/i686 problem. I used Cygwin instead of MYSYS to install a compiler that would transfer over to somebody using an older machine (i686), and cross compiling was something ...
