Irrlicht Engine

I'm not aware of any official Android phone support for OpenXR, although there was a post from a few years ago about Monado (an open source OpenXR runtime) with initial android support (https://www.collabora.com/news-and-blog/news-and-events/monado-update-passing-conformance-android-support-and-more...

Hi all, I managed to get my program using Irrlicht working with VR headsets using OpenXR. OpenXR is the API that's now supported across all the main PCVR headsets. https://www.bridgecommand.co.uk/data/_uploaded/image/BridgeCommandVR.jpg My implementation doesn't yet use the VR controllers, but every...

Following the release of MacOS Catalina, I had a problem where the Irrlicht was only rendering to the lower left quarter of the window. The same problem appeared at the same time for a number of other 3d engines (see https://github.com/panda3d/panda3d/issues/794 which also links to the same problem ...

Apologies, I've found my simple mistake: The images I was copying into were using the color format ECF_R8G8B8, not ECF_A8R8G8B8 (i.e. no alpha channel). Correcting this to ECF_A8R8G8B8 means that it all works as expected.

Hi, I'm trying to use IImage::copyToWithAlpha to overlay one image onto another one, but I'm having difficulty getting it to work. Using the nearly equivalent copyTo works fine, and I haven't been able to find any examples to suggest where I'm going wrong. The following snippet works, and I get the ...

Thanks for the comments.
I've uploaded a new version including a settings editor, and included a fix for the editor problem (As you say, I wasn't clearing the image before copying into it)

I've also changed the download name!

Thanks. The resolution and other settings are controlled from the bc5.ini file, either in the program directory, or in "%appdata%\Bridge Command\5.0b1" (or equivalents on OSX and Linux). I'm just in the process of putting together a simple settings editor to make it easy to change the sett...

Bridge Command is an open source (GPLv2) ship simulator, developed for training purposes. I've developed it for many years with Blitz3D, but have now re-written it with Irrlicht, and it's now available as a beta to test for Windows, OSX and Linux. It can be used as a standalone program, or networked...

I think the terrain loader uses getLightness(), which returns the average of max(r,g,b) and min(r,g,b). Therefore if the r, g and b values are identical, as you would expect in a greyscale image, it will return this value. After a bit more digging, it seems as if the problem is related to the format...

I've been using the terrain scene node, but getting some slightly unexpected results. I'm loading the heightmap from a greyscale (8 bit) bmp file, and would expect to get elevations from 0 to 255 units (pure black to pure white). However, the maximum height was coming out at 239. I've been checking ...

A good source for this might be http://gunpoint-3d.com/

They have tanks and jeeps.

Mostly for sale, but with good free ones as well -see the bottom of the home page:

OK, thanks.

I'll stay tuned for a completed terrain renderer.

Keep up the good work.

Hi, I am just getting into Irrilcht, and am very impressed. However, i'm still at the stage where I need to see how everything is done by examples. One of the main parts of my application will be a large terrain model. I have seen a number of screenshots of terrains, eg http://irrlicht.sourceforge.n...
