Irrlicht Engine

yeah... i think that what i said before was not really applicable in this situation

virtual const core::vector3df irr::scene::ISceneNode::getPosition ( ) const [inline, virtual] Gets the position of the node. Note that the position is relative to the parent. Returns: Returns the current position of the node relative to the parent. So.. i guess this must be your problem I think it w...

hmm... you could try putting in a condition so it stops when it achieves the goal you want it to acheieve

or you could implement in irrlicht something like the 3d studio max feature - object self-lighting but then again... you could use a billboard of some kind that would be the sun and attach a light to it... you can see how this is made in the tutorial for the Per Pixel Lighting... Basically you use a...

@ raven_coda i wouldn't recommend you to use heightmaps... there is an annoying feature or bug in the heightmap system in irrlicht: as you go further and further from a hill let's say, there is a decrease in the number of polygons of the elements that are far from you... and it's annoying... i still...

you could use irredit when it reaches a non-beta version... from what i have seen this far it seems to be pretty good ;) but why not create the levels in 3ds max and export them into your object of choice (my3d preferrably, or obj...) , import the map into irrlicht and add interactive environment el...

@ acki sorry about the dood thingie... it's gone kinda wild in my vocabulary :wink: and yeah... read the help... it was just a rough night and i didn't even see the hlp file :oops: @ luke heh... i've found a b3d exporter for max... http://www.brilliantdigital.com/productdetails.asp?ID=24 but.. it's ...

actually... i can handle pretty every language , except for assembly , if i read a brief part of the documentation... i was specific about c++ because it's the standard language used with irrlicht. and i was talking more about a challenge... something that i would have to do on my own, without any h...

Eh... i'm a beginner in both c++ and irrlicht... and i would need a suggestion for a project that would help me learn more... i have tried learning from books and stuff , but they have only gotten me to the level of beginner in c++. I mean , i can handle myself in c++ , but it's the algorithmic part...

@Luke I've just found out that blitz 3d is not freeware... and i need to use this in a commercial application, with a budget of 0... @Acki Dood... i've downloaded your IrrExtensions, and I was expecting something that was more like a patch for irrlicht, not an already compiled application... And eve...

wow... then you have a long way to go... really long way to go..

yes... i would really like to have the possibility to easily attach models to other nodes

i want it full featured

nice... but you have a long way to go until you reach the functionality of irredit...
