yea that's what i tried before but the particle behaviour was totally out of range/deformed.

this code does it
IParticleSystemSceneNode* ps;
IParticleEmitter* em;
IParticleAffector* paf,*pgaf;
ISceneNodeAnimator* pkill= smgr->createDeleteAnimator(100);
//int particleCount = 20;
vector3df ...

is there anyway i can have a particle system node following player node while reserving its orientation? like the water splashing underneath a boat when going forward/turning..

thanks a lot

xterminhate, this might be a solution. how would i implement it in my code?
i just need to identify what's the current model orientation

thanks

hi,
i created a class for camera that will attach the camera node to player node.
and i just set the parent of camera is the player, but it seems to be always in front of the player. does anyone know how to position it behind the player?

class attachCamera
{
ICameraSceneNode* cam;
vector3df ...

putting this problem aside for a min, how do i update the position of the character when the key is held down?
right now, it gets the current position when key is "pressed", update position, and it'll not be updated until the next event.
how to make it so that it'll update the position while in this ...
