Irrlicht Engine

Here you can find my Hexagon Grid project. It doesn't currently have any plans to be used by me, but it was a fun learning process. I based the code from an article that I found at http://www.codeproject.com/KB/graphics/hexagonal_part1.aspx. It's fairly easy to use, with the code being: #include &qu...

The textures seem to become extremely blurred or their quality reduced after they are a certain distance from the camera. I've tried this with Anti Aliasing on and off, same result. Using OpenGL : http://img228.imageshack.us/img228/6166/badxu3.png Anyone know what's happening here and how to fix it?

That's what I was thinking. Murcho has the constructor and destructor both public in his IrrSingleton class. Me confused.

@Murcho -snip- Just curious, doesn't having the constructor as public make it quite possible to just do new Engine();? @rogerborg I suppose using globals would be fine, but why would I use a global instead of a singleton? Less code i suppose, but it doesn't give me my plastic scissors that I so desi...

Either way works for me, and I thought one of the points for using a singleton was to not have to pass pointers around. For example, in the IrrWizard framework they pass the GameManager class around to each state, but in my framework I only have a GameManager class for init and release of core objec...

Fair enough.

Is there any reason to store the pointer rather than just use Class::Instance()->displayHello();?

I've been studying the singleton design pattern lately, and there's something I don't quite understand. In this example : #include <irrlicht.h> #include <iostream> class CCore { private: CCore() { } static CCore* m_instance; public: static CCore* Instance() { if(m_instance == 0) { m_instance = new C...

I'm using a std::list now, and this was a good opportunity for me to learn iterators. Thanks for the tip on how to do it with vectors though.

Why don't you post the settings you exported with, what code you use to load the model, and etc. etc. etc.

This gets asked every time. Please just do it from now on.

Sweet, well thruogh some printfs I've found that it behaves as expected and automatically resizes, so I'm pretty happy. Thanks for the nudge towards iterators and stuff.

std::list<Object*>::iterator i; for(i = objList.begin(); i != objList.end(); i++) { if((*i) == PointerToObject) { delete (*i); objList.erase(i); break; } } Correct? Edit : Blindside, I would try that, but I switched to an std::list rather than std::vector. Is there any advantage to using the Irrlic...

Thanks JP. I never would've caught the break. I was thinking using a list might be better here, but I wasn't really sure. I've never really gone in-depth with iterators, lists, and vectors so maybe I'll do some reading then.

I'm holding some objects in a std::vector and I'm not quite sure how to go about removing a choice element from the vector and resizing it(if this is even necessary). So far I've got this : for(int x = 0; x < (int)vec.size(); x++) { if(vec[x] == pointertoobject) { delete vec[x]; } } This is great an...

The game example was pretty nice. The only buggy thing I noticed was that if you try to jump on the tables it doesn't behave as expected.

You may want to put a few limitations on that (buildings have to be so close to a main plot for each potential town area) so the game doesn't become cluttered with random shops and buildings.
