Irrlicht Engine

derive something from IEventReceiver set it as the event receiver and detect the mouse event during the OnEvent(const SEvent & e) call. class myEventHandler : public IEventReceiver { public: virtual bool OnEvent(const SEvent &e) { switch (e.EventType) { case EEVENT_TYPE::EET_MOUSE_INPUT_EVEN...

Unbelievable. Sigh. You have no idea how much hair I pulled out in this one. Thanks again for all your help!

I now have 3 days invested in this. sigh...... Looking for some help with my custom scenenode please. I am trying to create a terrain editor brush gizmo that sets itself to the height of the terrain. I have posted a lot of code so sorry about that derived from IMeshSceneNode and utilizes Mesh = Scen...

very impressive!

interesting. I will look into that, thanks!

thanks for the info!

thanks for the heads up!

thanks for all the help! I now have things working as desired.

in the shader system I have, I currently have to paste the lighting and fog code into each shader. is it possible to use a #include statement inside the shaders for irrlicht so i can have a single lighting / fog file?

gotcha. It seems we still think alike so I feel I am on the right track. I create a shader instance for each object and then store the object instance inside the shader class so that I have access to the scenenode (as well as the lights, fog etc... though the object and into the level instance). I w...

maybe I am doing it wrong. I dont use the material variables at all in the shader, I send them all through the onsetconstants() function. for example , one of my lit shaders with 8 textures. (the whole stringtoFloat() and such is just my own nonsense for having exposed variables for the scripting la...

seems we think alike. I am doing something similar to what you have but on a per object case. basically I have a shadermanager that creates shaders and then use node->setmaterialType() as needed inside the game objects. (curently have a base shadertype in each obejct but can set the current shader a...

perfect. I solved my issue. thanks for the help. are there any examples of using multiple shaders on one scenenode? last but not least, is the overridematerial useful for something like when selecting an object it would be nice to have a shader that runs to show it selected. (i currently use debugin...

When using my own shader, is is accurate to think that I could use only the EMT_SOLID or EMT_TRANSPARENT_ADD_COLOR(or variation of transparent) as the 'base' material in order to have the system sort / render correctly? for example, using EMT_DETAIL_MAP would be the same as using EMT_SOLID and would...
