Irrlicht Engine

i looked it up and yeah you're right. But when iheriting from IAnimatedMeshSceneNode i'm not sure if your custom object is stored as a Mesh so you can add Shadows with addVolumeSceneNode (but i really dont have much knowledge of this so im not sure).

Hi, i searched the forum for this and found something but the links were dead and the DirectX meshviewer save doesn't work. I tried to load a xMesh into irrlicht but i get some strange errors: "Unknown Data Object in Mesh in X File : FaceAdjacency" ->indeed the faces seem to have lost thei...

hi

I might be terribly wrong with this but your custom sceneNode inherits from the ISceneNode class so it does have the "addShadowVolumeSceneNode" function. Can't you just call it for shadows?

Thanks a lot. zfx.info seems to be quit useful for this matter.
BTW of course i use wikipedia in case of upcoming questions. But i searched something one can read in whole. (indeed like a book)

Hi Does anyone know a good page that explains all the basics you need for programming in 3d? I started off with OpenGl by doing NeHe's Tutorials but i discovered that there are stil very (very) much things i don't understand. (what are mipmaps?, what actually are shaders? and all that stuff). I sear...

Hi, I want to make simple levels with an level editor. My choice was DeleD as its format can directly be imported. But one thing bothers me: When you use parallax or normal mapping with a heightmap is it possible to assign these heightmaps within DeleD? (or any other level editor?) Or does this have...

Hi, i intent to make a simple FPS game with Irrlicht. I want to make the levels with blender as I got some experience with it. If I make a room for example and want to export it to a Irrlicht suitable format like md2 or .X is there any way to use more than 1 UV-Map ? When they are only 256*256 pixel...

Hi, I already searched the forum but wasn't able to find a suitable answer: When i use the boundingBox->getCenter() of a bounding box of a mesh, I get strange results. The mesh is a simple circle. For indicating the center of the bounding box i set a billboard to the position returned by getCenter()...

Hi, I'm not exactly sure about this but the IGUIWindow class has a method called <<getCloseButton()>>. So you could just check for Gui Button Clicked events and get the ID of The close Button with the mehtod mention aboved if(id == nameOfWindow->getCloseButton()->getID() ) ... When you receive this ...

Hi I tried to realize a simple program with a Mesh moving around in a Quake III Map. Camera was supposed to be third person. I tried it with the Parent Thing but I got quite strange results. The I tried to also reset the Cameras Position and Target To The moving Mesh. But the Camera moving doesn't m...

thanks i guess these tutorials will help me. By the way there isn't any real Irrlicht Manual or Am I mistaken?

Hi, I'm sorry for bothering with this question that was propably asked several times before. Still I wasn't able to find a satisfying answer : How to actually learn the Irrlicht Engine ? I worked through the tutorials and i got vague knowledge of some basic methods now but not enough for actually wo...
