Irrlicht Engine

listen to what Xception says.
The function you use simply draws an image as stated in the API,
the second function will also apply the alpha channel when setting the last parameter to true. try this instead:

driver->makeColorKeyTexture(lives,core::position2d<s32>(0,0));

driver->draw2DImage(lives ...

i d love to know myself how to rotate a node using its x axis instead of the y axis :p

yes i noticed the jittering happens because of the movespeed parameter.
the higher the more the camera jitters when you rotate :S

btw i noticed you now make the node move too when you rotate the camera :p

I am updating the fps camera to make it feel more natural (the current fpscamera aint really an fps camera but a spectator camera)
but i have bumped into a problem. I just cant seem to find the piece of code that tells the camera to turn left when the cursor is moving horizontally.
I want to change ...

the setTarget method will only make the camera look to the position of your node. So it wont make the camera move. To make the camera move you will still need to use the setPosition method on your camera node.

the moving forward part can be done a lot smaller :)

try this one:


vector3df forward = ( sin( (Node->getRotation().Y+90)*PI/180.0f ), 0, cos( (Node->getRotation().Y+90)*PI/180.0f ) );
Node->setPosition( Node->getPosition() + forward*0.25f );


if your node isnt a md2 model remove the "+90 ...

I dont think its possible :X

hmm i still have a problem :X
You add the trisel from the boundingbox correct?, well I need to add the real model instead of its box because it will have to be possible to walk into that model (it has a door :p) and then the model will be moveable
btw do you have msn messenger? i would like to ...

Thanks mate you really helped me out !

I have setted up a scene with a moving node inside a bsp file and i added all the collision detection code and it works fine.
Now i added a static model to the scene and i want this model to be a part of the collision so that my moving node wont run tru it.
Any help on how i should add it?

i fear you will have to take a look into the source of the engine itself. as i didnt find any info on that in the API

Hi, i ve been fooling around with the irrlicht engine for a while now. And what bothers me is the use of some file formats.
For example we easily use md2 models, 3ds meshes and even bsp maps.
I was wondering what kind of license goes with these formats!
I remmember the qfusion engine wich was a ...

thanks dude

I used the sydney model to test this piece of code and there is still a little problem. she strafes instead of walking forward :p
so for those who have this problem too simply change this line to

vector3df forward( sin( node->getRotation().Y*PI/180.0f ), 0, cos( node->getRotation().Y*PI/180.0f ...

Search for this line of code,
IrrlichtDevice *device =
createDevice(video::DT_DIRECTX8,
core::dimension2d<s32>(640, 480), 16, false, false, &receiver);

and change it to,
IrrlichtDevice *device =
createDevice(video::DT_OPENGL,
core::dimension2d<s32>(640, 480), 16, false, false, &receiver);

Well ...
