Irrlicht Engine

The community is one of the best things about irrlicht. If you need collision, there's several Newton wrappers on the Project announcements forum and a bullet demo. If you need networking there's IrrNet and the Code snippets is full of shader demos and input upgrades. On top of that there's the simp...

a small thing that could be improved for the FPS jump is a 'pause time'. If you hold jump then the camera bounces up and down. I've noticed a lot of games allow a fraction of a second between landing and jumping again to allow for a more realistic effect. It wouldn't be hard (I think :? ) ... someth...

'Game Coding complete' by Mick McShaffery was a good book. It looked into good coding practice and had code like 'making your own scene graph' and a very useful smart pointer class that deallocates itself :shock: . It then goes into managing/producing a game. BTW: also has a simple primer on Vector ...

Isn't that kinda of what the wiki IS FOR though? a free repository of knowledge online?

First, add #include "CJumpingAnimator.h" next add CJumpingAnimator.cpp to your project (make it one of the files you compile) these files are in the post above. now when you create a colision responce animator do this: ISceneNodeAnimator *anim = new CSceneNodeAnimatorJumpingCollisionRespon...

THEY LOOK GREAT! :shock: Just what I need for my game. Can't wait for the stealth shader to be finished :D you said that the stealth effect appears through walls, maybe you could use stencil buffer? or copy the zbuffer and apply only to 'equal' depths on the model. This is just a few ideas. I don't ...

You add the .cpp to your project to compile, and you put the .h in the same directory and #include it.

you add them to your project, in the project directory... what problems are you getting?

Theres no place like 127.0.0.1

go into a room and tell this joke. any one who smiles or laughs is a nerd. (we found 3 so far in our school)

I find when I write a new Irrlicht game/app I start straight away with a basic class framework that I can easily add to or upgrade later. This makes making a game easier and if you get a layout like this that you prefer it can help give you a starting point as to what to do next. The main file looks...

looks decent, I'll look into it for my game.
Thanks for pointing this out BTW .

SWEET!
that web page is possibly THE best Irrlicht page about at the moment!

I'd say ubuntu also... although you have to install the compiler and libraries manually(that is they don't come pre-installed but come on the disk). As has been mentioned: backup important data and defrag the hard drive in windows before partition resizeing (this will reduce the chance of data loss).

The current Irrlicht logo is good. These are too OTT, :shock: maybe something more subtle, like the current logo with a slight lightning effect, but throwing special FX for the point of it isn't always a good idea. (tip: use difference clouds on the logo and alter the levels for a lightning effect t...

here here. Maybe Acki should make a patch for the SVN that someone can make as part of 'main stream irrlicht' for 1.3
