Irrlicht Engine

This is highly interesting. Sorry for this long post, but it could save a lot more. Ok, I am also a linux fan since 1998. Coincidence? This is when I realized I would have to throw 150 bucks every 3 years just because someone is forcing to do so, anyway... I much prefer a gui that makes it easier to...

What's so great about them... Not much. Don't take it seriously. It's not a complete game. Just that a 15Km square with decent texture for a flight sim (brillant idea BTW) + code for LOD models + retarded AI + minimal GUI + code for cam placement (gravity+never get out of terrain bounds), runs prett...

Yes! But as far as i know this has never been done. It is a basic case where the VB6 app has to use objects and functions from a dll (API), so the VB app has to declare all functions, types, enumerations (preferably in a standard module), to be able to use them. Declare Function createDevice ( drive...

Hi, Texture makes it all.

Hi, Good idea. I'm trying to get it running, just to see how it looks. A question about the line SColor movedColour(m_texts[item - 1]->getOverrideColor()); Where can I find infos about the getOverrideColor method? Cant find it on IGUIStaticText page http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/docu/classirr_1_1g...

My world is a serie of heightmaps and models. Plus some code for LOD control. It has the feel of Joint Ops (a good ol' game). Basically Irlicht & Max are enough. The editor? Built off the 3d engine itself. BSP stuff is soo long to compile.

Well most games use or could use directX and/or GCC.
They are just tools, you can go commercial with your code, which is independant of them.

Hi, Scale the terrain creates large triangles by expanding them (well, scaling them) therefore i might fall trough a gap if my ellipse is smaller than the gap. 2d approach, you can do collision "manually" ie without CollisionResponseAnimator(), Simply trace a vertical line to get the groun...

Great!

A question about Terrain. Sometimes triangles close to the camera disappear depending on the camera angle. Was this fixed in 1.0?

Knobs, the terrain looks really good! Any chance to test it?

This is not a problem. The mesh node can be hidden, not the joint.
MyAnimatedMeshSceneNode->setVisible(false)

If you want to hide only the joint and its associated vertices, you have to make it as a separate mesh, and attach it as childnode.

Hi all, Applications sometimes need to store variables between executions. For example screen resolution chosen by client, or his favourite 3D acceleration driver, etc... Apache, Samba, PHP, Half-Life... They do load their config with the method i am going to show here. You all know this format: - a...
