Irrlicht Engine

The rotation of the camera is controlled by the attached Billboard Nodes (see the constructor of the camera class). The relative position of the camera to the object is, if you look a bit closer, the third parameter of the constructor ("vRelativePos"). The interpolation speed can be contro...

lol, sorry, another typing bug ^^
Surely vector3d<T> can just take 3 params in their constructor. So just use 3 and everything is ok

Corrected it in the code above. Thanks

You shall firstly test if the AABBs of the Objects itnersects each other. Then you can go into more detail and check if there is a intersection on triangle-level. That would be much faster then as your code now ;) Further you can implement a Hierarchical AABB tree and you could sort your Object-AABB...

That was a example of how to implement it, sorry for typing bug.. it means "Update( .. )" not "update( .. )". So the fDeltaTime var you have to calculate by yourself.. could be done like this in you main loop: u32 nLastTime = irrDevice->getTimer()->getTime(); while(irrDevice->run...

Hi, for my recent project i build a flying 3rd Person camera. It supports interpolation between positions, so this will be a very smooth cam :) It bases on some code i found in the forum, but that was very buggy and that cam wasn't too beautyful to fit my high expectation ;) So this camera would be ...

Joints are the connections between the bones... every model has a root joint. So you have a hierarchy like this: o--o / o--o \ o--o - = bone o = joint So i think if you name a bone, you name the joint that is facing away from the Root joint. But so the root joint would have no name... hm.. looks lik...

First you load an x or an ms3d file: // the player model IAnimatedMesh* pPlayerMesh = pSmgr->getMesh("./data/player.ms3d"); // the weapon model IAnimatedMesh* pWeaponMesh = pSmgr->getMesh("./data/weapon.3ds"); // insert two scene nodes for weapon and player IAnimatedMeshSceneNode...

First that i am thinking about this is that the renderer uses a lower mip map from that texture... The blocking could be switched off by using 32bit instead of 16bit for textures. If you made the font with the IrrFontTool and under WindowsXP, try switching off XP's Build-in font smoothing... ( Displ...

okay, as I said, "AFAIK" ;).. remembered just a thing like getXJoint.. but as you're saying, i begin remembering there was something about Milkshape files, too... ;) Hm... anyhow it would be good if there would be support to attach things to vertices, so that the move like the vertices do....

AFAIK The only way to attach something to joints of models in irrlicht is to use the DirectX (extension "*.x") format. So this would answer your question which format to use

Ok, i recoded 99% of the class so i have a nice working flying.behind-the-node-3rd-person-cam ;) I'll share the code with you, so you can use it on you own: camera.h: #ifndef CAMERA_H #define CAMERA_H #include <irrlicht.h> /* Custom 3rd person following camera for irrlicht Made by the_viking in 2004...

Ok, i got i fixed now... it's working then...

I applicated the code from here now, but the camera seems not to accept the position by the fakenode ( im using billboards instead)... it stays on a point, and I see the Dir and Pos nodes around my scenenode..

that does not work... anyhow... dunno why \E: It's because it does not applicate the up vector... if i'd use that camera the scenenodes would rotate from the view of the Player... that's not what i want, i want a static camera, having the scenenode always at the same position and rotatation on the s...
