PS :

after some tests, I can tell you that my second issue (the unwanted origin change) is not caused by the QuadTree itself, I have the same origin change when I put nodes using addMeshSceneNode

Is it something well known and normal, or am I doing something terribly wrong ? :)

2 questions :) (white color ? and... origin unwanted change)

Hi all ! Here I am with 2 new noob questions :lol: 1) The first one (the simplest I guess) : I can't get many colours work.... When I write : const SColor COLOR_BOUNDING_BOX = SColor(255, 255, 255, 255); I hope to get a white color, but no, I get red (or green, dont remember)... The same happens if ...

Hi Agony, In fact, I exported all of them in one single .obj file, and with 9 different UVmap, and it works fine. I have just 1 or 2 issues : strange rotation of the mesh, one of the faces is... reversed (like if displayed in a mirror), and the position of the origin is not always good. But in a gen...

Ok I finally got the answer on that french Math forum :lol: Just for information (in case someone would like to put objects on the map with a mouse click) : Say A = (x, y, z) and B = (x', y', z') the 2 points that are known. Say M = (X, 0, Z) the intersection between (AB) and the plane of equation y...

Hi bitplane, Although I followed advanced math studies, I forgot everything and I'm now back to a low maths level. I'm sorry but I don't see what startVector is, yDistance neither :oops: And about plane3D... Don't see what you mean lol I know I am a desperate case. When asking the question, I though...

[SOLVED] [Maths] A small question... :)

Okay okay, I know this is NOT a maths forum, but I asked the question on a french maths forum and still got no answer :cry: ^^ I know the position of two points (say A and B), and an imaginary line go through these two points. I would like to know the X and Z coordinates of the point on this line wi...

I did not get the same issue as JP. For me, it was obviously the fault (but according to what criteria ?) of the OctreeSceneNode, because it works fine if I do not use it for the level (but I got this issue only with the level, not the objects). Thats all I can say. Maybe gurus can have a look at th...

Thanks for the workaround :) Mmmmh... Then why do I gain 30fps with Quadtree ? :shock: Ok, it now compiles successfuly, thanks ! :) But I do not see any performance gain :shock: Maybe 10fps (I run between 190 and 200fps) Ill try with more objects, but I am currently working on the map file format (t...

Yes I saw that it worked for you in fullscreen mode, so thats nice (but still strange that it does not work in windowed) Indeed Im really happy that this issue is solved because it was getting on my nerves to see the map disappearing if I dared to move too much around the map :) Things are getting b...

I finally tried the Quadtree thing :lol: I simply copied the 2 files (cpp, h) in my src directory, and use a define to use (or not) the quadtree, like in their demo (but I do not use the LODSceneNode... At least not for the time being). Before speaking of the results (comparison between not using it...

JP I have news... Thanks to the Quadtree Bitplane told me about in the "Tips for making an HOMM like game" (not the quadtree itself but that gave me an idea), I found why my map was disappearing. I was adding my map as an Octree scene node, but if I use just addMeshSceneNode, it does not d...

Hi JP :) I had already read the thread :) I can't run fullscreen, it constraints my mouse in what seems to be an invisible window, and nothing is accessible (I have to add the ESCAPE key to quit, because I had to manually reboot my computer when I tried...) And for OpenGL, I'm already using it since...
