THREAD NECROMANCY!

One year later. I eventually managed to get Irrlicht to compile and run, then I got daring and actually edited some of the source, so that it would shout silly things at you if you tried to run DX8 or 9, and would only load Burning's software engine, no matter which engine you tried to run. The resu...

OK, I found the tutorial to be very helpful! Except for a few things.(yes, I'm a C++ newbie, yes, I understand that trying to take on something as complex as Irrlicht with my experience level is suicidal. I'm known for that kind of thing, actually.) first, I followed the instructions(except for the ...

you should attempt to contact the owner of the blog at http://www.saigumi.net/, he wrote the seamless, and repeating seamless, world tutorials(which are now missing from the archive, it seems.)

If you manage to get useful info out of him, please post up, I'm wondering about it, too.

Irrlicht doesn't have a fixed maximum polygon density, just whatever your hardware will support.(as it should be.) If your curb is smaller and closer to the light, then it will be lit better than your roadway. The best suggestion I have is get in and custom-build your meshes to have vertexes every f...

on what I believe to be a similar note, I've been trying to get Irrlicht to work with Code::Blocks. At first, I got about 12 errors and 57 warnings when attempting to recompile the Irrlicht library, so I did some poking around and found the "using Irrlicht with Code::Blocks" news item on t...

You could always post a screenshot of your mesh(wireframe would be ideal, as that gives an idea of the vertex spacing). He's right, though. In realtime polygonal drawing, a face is lit based on how the light is hitting the vertexes. If the vertexes of your mesh are too far away from the light, your ...

I suspect he and his friends have made games using programs like GameMaker and Klik n' Play. These programs are fairly decent at letting you hit the ground running, and they even help develop skills which will be used later on in a programming career, such as cause-effect and resource management, bu...
