Irrlicht Engine

Largely for the sake of not having to redo this all later, I would like to use OIS to grab input, and aim that at the irrlicht functions. (From what I read on the OIS forum, it could well make remapping easier as well.) My question is fairly straightforward, how would one go about doing that? More s...

Sprites are good, 3d models if you can. I'm finishing up the preliminary design now. So hardcore programming should commence soon. Joy. Yeah... I planned on working with a derived class from FPSCamera for another perspective.... just to show that you can do just about whatever you want with this fra...

Have yet to add all my contact info to the forum, but my email is neokannon@_Ihatespam_gmail.com. You can occasionally catch me on yahoo messenger on neokannon. I'll get a website going. Ok, RustyNail, can you start on artwork for a space shooter thing? A couple of ships of varying sizes, some power...

Go for it. Art is hard work, and one artist/designer/programmer person on caffine overload can only do so much. Right now, I'm laying out all of the classes I need to create, the basic high points I want to hit with this project, and the example game(s) I'm thinking an asteroids clone, and a fast pa...

Hm, might as well, since that's where my actual ability lies... A couple of quick tutorials on Blender, Gimp and so on. And how to get it into Irrlicht. It won't be extensive, but the critical bits... UV Mapping, basic extrusion modelling, basic texture work.... I'd definitely appriciate the help. T...

I really wouldn't mind doing the bulk of the work... all of the tutorial writing, all of the design, all of the art, some of the programming... I just need some help with some of the implementation. I'm learning C++ pretty fast. Mainly I need the help with keyboard input, and reading from XML files....

Looking through some of the older posts, I noticed a lot of people griping about one thing. The lack of something going from basics to advanced. Well, I had an idea. I thought, that maybe a few people that actually have programming talent, could help me put together a framework. This is where my dev...

Doing both isn't a bad idea... believe it or not, I never thought of that. Too late, too little caffine. I could also probably have a speed adjustment in the prefs as well, for the rotating camera. Thanks! (Now to get them to co-exist..... and write a non-sickening rotating camera)

I'm designing and working on a top down space shooter/RPG. I was wondering if I should make the camera swing around with the heading of the ship... or stay fixed, no matter which way the ship is pointed. There will be a lot of dogfighting and action, so I'm thinking fixed is the best way. What do yo...

Yep, I'm pretty clueless about pointers... I should do some research. I'm decent with classes though. At least that gives me a direction to research in. I'm really not a programmer, just been forced into the role. I'm learning as I go, but some additional research would probably help. Thanks for the...

Well, after killing countless over strained brain cells by beating my head against the wall, i've come to the conclusion being an artist in a programmers world sucks. I've got the completely sdrawkcab ssa way of thinking for this. I can whip up a decent looking ship model in minutes, but a simple he...

I know, this question has been asked to death, is the subject of a whole tutorial (almost), and the bane of countless newbies.... but here's one more, desperately seeking help. (/Rambling Text) Basically, I'm curious of how one would program an application that could rotate, and move an object along...

I was wondering if anyone had any luck with home-grown scene graphs in XML. The project I'm currently working on reqires a somewhat customized scene solution. I havn't had any luck with the XML library included in VisualEditor. Any other XML libraries someone might reccomend. Or does Irrlicht 1.1 (Y...

I was thinkning something simplistic, along the lines of when a player hits the edge of a system's "circle", it could load the next one, before it came into view. How would I be able to implement this... or could I even?

Does X export for you totally screw your UV coordinates? If you want, I can send you the X export script I have, and you can compare it with yours, and maybe siphon the working code bits out of both and slap them together. I'll skim through the code as well, maybe newbie eyes willl get lucky. Edit: ...
