Irrlicht Engine

Whoops, sorry. I forgot to mention that I've uploaded the modified version here using NDEBUG. The Burning renderer is doing fine with small scenes:

Same instructions as on top of this thread.

Ehm.. It turns out I forgot to compile with NDEBUG :oops:

Compiling with optimization (-O3 etc.) gives quite a bit. Compiling with IRRLICHT_FAST_MATH also gives something. But the two together seems to cause a problem: No triangles are rendered. I can still see text/glyph rendering on the screen ...

Hah, that's a pretty neat project you have there.

Low quality, check. Fast math..? Can't remember having played with that flag. I'll get back here with updated info. Thanks.

Hi all,

Not many people are right now aware of this but Google has an ongoing effort which is no less than brilliant: A plugin which allows execution of binary x86 code inside the browser. And it really looks secure!

How does it work? (Skip this if you want ...

If you have any good hint on Blender exporters that we should know about, I am all ears

Thank you vermeer for the thorough advice. Looking forward to experimenting with md2/3. Never new anything about those formats.

I suspected so, but needed confirmation from .x experts. Thanks for the quick reply!

.... Using the DirectX exporter, ahem

Has anybody succeeded in using anything but armature/skeleton/bones-based animation from Blender in Irrlicht?

What about:
Shape keys? (formerly known as Absolute/relative vertex keys)
Softbody?
Fluid?
Deformations?

Any help or ideas appreciated, thanks.

Wait, no, it's not that code. It's the function parseDataObjectMeshMaterialList
On line 772-782 it says: if (objectName == ";")
{
// ignore
}
else
{
os::Printer::log("Unknown data object in material list in x file", objectName.c_str());
if (!parseUnknownDataObject())
return false;
}

Just got the new SDK this evening, and when reading my usual .X meshes, I start to get something like: Unknown data object bla bla material list: ;;
Problem is easy to locate: CXFileReader.cpp. (Can't remember the line: Search for "material list")

It expects a material list to end with ; NOT ...

When I browse these forums, I notice a few people with weird mesh problems like I used to have (using Blender 2.42). I'm not talking about actions etc, which is problematic enough in itself, but simply that the meshes are messed up.

Ok, so for those who haven't examined the sourcecode:

THERE IS A ...

Folks, Irrlichts way of calculating the projection matrix is plain wrong.

The matrix per se is alright, but don't forget that the frustum perspective matrix transforms the space so that a given set of coordinates (Left,Right,Top,Bottom) on the zNear plane is mapped to -1..1 of the viewing cube ...

GOT IT! There's a little vertex right in between the lips, and a couple of edges attached to it. Adding a few additional print clauses in the script helped me catch it. Sorry for alarming people.

Still got the error even though I have selected all vertices and assigned to the 'torso' vertex group, which would make some of them belonging to two groups. But thanks for the hint :)

EDIT: One point worth noticing is that I added the bone 'torso' after I had parented the armature to the mesh ...
