Irrlicht Engine

There are plenty of examples floating around here. Try a search in the FAQ forum, and the code snippets forum.

Try creating a custom skin. http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/docu/cl ... _skin.html

The terrain tutorial has a collision response animator, is that what you're looking for? If you want *real* gravity, then try looking at a physics engine like ODE or Newton.

Well, I'm not a mod, so I can't tell you anything about an update, but phpBB 3 hasn't even entered beta testing yet, so unless there's a modification out there, you could be waiting a whille.

The version of phpBB the board is using doesn't support sub-forums without mods. Those features will be released with phpBB 3. I agree though, subforums and such would takesome of the work off finding info.

Yeah, there is, check out the ISceneNode page in the API. Also, take a look at the vector3d page, specifically the rotation functions.

EDIT: You might also want to try a search, the code might already be out there.

Make the particle system a child of the player node?

If you only got interested in coding today, I'll give you some useful advice:

Delete Irrlicht and go learn C++ or .Net

If you expect to just download Irrlicht and expect to write games, you'll just end up disapointing yourself.

You need to know how things work, how the language works, how 3D ...

Look up the SEvent structure in the API, then read up on event receivers.

Works fine for me, is everybody here using the boolean operators?

If you want to find which GUI element your mouse is over, use getElementFromPoint(), http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/docu/cl ... nt.html#a6

It'll work for anything derrived from IGUIElement.

In one of the newer releases of phpBB2, there's a validation feature that can help stop the spam accounts. They show you an image with letters, and you have to put them in correctly before they let you register. phpBBhacks.com has a lot more security mods that can help with this too.

Look at Emil's Magic2D library in the project announcements forum.

Import the 3ds into milkshape.
Save file as MS3D.

Wow, that was pretty sweet. It'd be nice to have a larger one that displayed more clearly, oh well.
