Irrlicht Engine

I think so.
is my video card just too slow that I can see it, or its something else?

Why every time I move the camera I see that the terrain changes itself?
I was trying the terrain rendering demo of Irrlicht 0.14 (and 0.10).
I am using Windows in 32-bit and Direct3D 9.0c.
I have a video card of, well, previous-previous-generation. is that the case?

pex.

@Guest, I know this. thats why i asked if it won't crash or slow down. so i guess it won't, thanks!
@Picard, When the user is first run the game I dont want to decide what renderer it'll use or let him choose himself (not from config.ini, its possible that he won't understand what is a renderer or ...

Hi.
I want my game will find the best renderer automatically, so i took the GetDXVersion function from my old DX9.0b sdk.
The problem is that it doesnt work (i copied-and pasted it to the game project).
thats how i call it: GetDXVersion(&dwDXVersion,0,0).

So I was thinking...what happen if the user ...

OpenGL is written in C but of course you can use OO with opengl. take irrlicht as an example (and logic).
Maybe Jeff didn't use classes so it'll be in C code or for making it less complex (it is online).
but i dont think it matter for the learning (it matter in projects).
And OpenGL isn't win32 ...

.bak is a backup file. maybe you didnt converted the .map well, or the converted file (.bsp) is in other directory
and about glib: http://www.gtk.org/ (http://freshmeat.net/projects/glib told me that it is the homepage \:)
i think that this is the glib you search for, i dont know even what is it

lol, dont worry about that..my computer will never be fast in 3d again until i will find the update for my video driver (or find the os's cd to use dx8 back)..techdemo used 0 ...

i used game maker for more than 1 year, and belive me - its a bad idea to put it together with Irrlicht !
here are my reasons:
1) the DLL is GMIrrlicht.dll. the GM thingy destroy the look, less professional i would say. and not everybody would want that you will know they used GM..there is ...

What are physics engines and why should i use them?
i know its something about collisions or something like that, but why is it better to use a physics engine for that instead using just the graphic engine?
and, are physics engines hard to learn or easy?

thanks, pex.

i dont understand in frames much, like setFrameNr..
but have you tried setFrameLoop=false;?
and i think that when the frame is >=19, recoil becomes false but the loop is still true. so maybe thats the problem.

emm, a simple question..is your directx 9 works in other games?
everything, the 3d...everything? because my directx 9 is ok exept it cant render 3d..
and you cant install dx8.1 on dx9 as much as i know..
did you try opengl, is it works on opengl?
if it is then i think its something in the directx ...

i know game maker, but it doesnt render 3d and cant read C++.
so i have no idea how you are planning to use gm (game maker) with a C++ engine since you need a DLL for reading and compiling C++.
and anyway i dont think there is a way to compile C++ with game maker....
and game maker dont use classes ...

iNVERSE-sQUARE, there are errors in the tutorial
maybe you wrote DT_SOFTWARE instead EDT_SOFTWARE...
Vinetu, this means that the default font of irrlicht couldnt be loaded.
sorry but i have no idea about console windows in irrlicht, i use only windows (or did you mean to something else?)
have you ...
