Irrlicht Engine

Hi CuteAlien, Thanks a lot for your response, I was not even aware of the compatibility possibility, I just took core from the examples on the tutorial page and ran into my problem. I think I will also use your trick in the future :)
But may I ask you, how exactly I am supposed to transform my ...

In the meantime I got it working using the old GLSL version, and changing other "things" in the shader code to adjust for the old version syntax. But it would still be great to understand what I did wrong, and how the newer version would work as well.

I am very thankful for every Irrlicht demo that is out there, with or without license or origin information, because I learn a lot from them.
The problem is that I always think and worry too much, but that is my personal issue, and not a problem caused by somebody else :)

I will make more ...

Hello,

I am currently doing my first steps regarding basic shader learning using GLSL and Irrlicht. I started with an Irrlicht example which worked great, did some modifications to the shaders, everything worked and I had fun doing this. Now I want to continue by applying and trying out the great ...

Thank you very much for your hints. I spent the last hour searching through all projects at Github with the Tag "Irrlicht", but unfortunetly I was not able to locate the original sources/projects. Or at least Github did not show them to me using this tag. Maybe if I search more I will find them. I ...

Hi,

For my Hi-Octane clone project I was playing around a bit with Irrlicht Demos I found on Github under "netpipe/IrrlichtDemos".
Some of the example are really great, and I would like to use some of the ideas and media files for my project as well if possible.

I linked an example picture here ...

I found as long as I add all necessary MeshBuffers (the can also be empty at this point in time, does not seem to matter) before creation of the SMesh + SceneNodes, I can fill them later (during runtime of the program) with new vertices and indices, and the program does not crash.
Therefore I found ...

All my latest changes over the last 3 weeks (including the first steps of the level editor and the bug that leads to the crash) are now merged and commited into main of my projects git repo. Just in case somebody wants to look at it :) But to be honest I believe my source code around this terrain ...

Hi CuteAlien,
Thank you for your valueable input, in my case it was the second bug you suggested... so the problem was me, and I feel like an idiot now :) Most likely it was working already most of the time (during my several hours debugging session), but I kept wondering why I do not see any line ...

I tried a little bit more, and I was clearly wrong until now. The camera returns the expected current position. So the camera is not the problem. Maybe I have a line3D drawing issue. When I draw a 3Dline starting from the cameras position is it then clipped and not shown on screen?

My problem with the camera occurs in the new level editor executable which I started only some days ago. This source code is not yet merged into the main branch of my repo, and therefore you will not find it there. I changed a lot of things again for the editor, and therefore I wanted to test ...

I forgot to mention I have the same problem when I try to use getRayFromScreenCoordinates; According to the documentation the ray start should be at the location of the currently active camera (which in my case is the FPS camera), but also here the returned ray.start location is always at the origin ...

Thank you very much for your fast response. My problem is not that the position I get with getAbsolutePositiin or getPosition from the FPS camera is in the origin for the first frame, it is in the origin the whole time (all frames). I also ran updateAbsolutePosition before, and it did not change the ...

Hello, in the mean time I introduced the nullptr instead NULL in my project everywhere, and it caused no issues at all. Thanks for pointing this out again. I also learned during the last days that I had done the includes in my projext as horrible as only possible. I always thought it is a good idea ...

Thank you again for your answer to my question. I am glad that the speed penalty with using the pointers like in my example above seems to be small enough, so that I can keep working like this. I already read some information about nullptr in the internet over the weekend, and as soon as there is ...
