Irrlicht Engine

Ah I think I found a weird memory leak with the shooting- Didnt bother my main system but my puny laptop crashed after 5-6 minutes. I will go ahead and fix that and upload the changes in the next few days.

My humble entry: Irrlicht Invaders http://www.g0dsoft.net/invaders/invaders1.jpg http://www.g0dsoft.net/invaders/invaders2.jpg http://www.g0dsoft.net/invaders/invaders3.jpg Download Win32 Binary: http://www.g0dsoft.net/invaders/invadersbin.zip Download Source Code: http://www.g0dsoft.net/invaders/in...

Well I had thought I was finished with my entry, but with sprintz and bitplane putting their best foot forward- I guess I will have to revamp it!
(In bitplanes case, I recall seeing a three boobed alien... )

I will be releasing said config code using tinyXML as part of my space invaders entry- If you are having issues with your entry, check back in the space invaders thread in about a week to snap up my code.

Edit: Wow, I didnt realise this thread was 5-6 mounths old... never mind

I will be participating. Prior to the release of my entry, I'm going to be releasing some really helpful classes for the other competitors- including a proper high score class. Also, if anyone is interesting in joining me on my entry... I really don't have time to do proper billboard sprites / backg...

The alpha fade works perfectly with the new irrlicht 1.2! @ssexton- I have left your pure alpha fade code in: commented out for users who wish to have a pure alpha fade, but kept my original fade algorithm as default. They look virtually the same, but for users with irrlicht 1.1 or older, they will ...

Clouds look good, n' so does the terrain.
One of the nicer out door irrlicht shots I have seen.

Updated main post.

Nifty, looks good!

Ah, well I'm using irrlicht 1.1 release, so I imagine the dx fading is fixed in the svn version. For the time being I will leave your alternative code commented out, and the fade to black in. Thanks for checking that for me ssexton! Edit: actually I can't recall if I tested the fade code for dx9 and...

@ssexton -Fade code, What version of irrlicht are you using, that makes that fade code work? My problem is that regardless of what alpha value I give the text, it won't become transparent. -I didn't know about the default warning in gcc, thanks for the heads up. I will fix it right now. -Thanks for ...

I uploaded the changes to the download version. So feel free to get the changes via direct download.

stodge- the warnings have been fixed in the code posted on the first page of this thread, and they had no affect on the running of the program. They were only a little inefficient.

Oh and if you were replying to ether halan or DavidR, don't mind me!

Hey Halen, I *think* I fixed warnings you pointed out. (I don't have irrlicht set up in visual studios at the moment) Could you double check the code in visual studio and confirm they are gone? Thanks. *Edit, the current version is in this post only, I havent uploaded it to the direct download locat...

I've only compiled the code under dev c++, as you could imagine it's not as picky as the (microsoft?) compiler you are using. I will update the code in the next few days when I have a moment to get ride of those pesky warnings for you
