Irrlicht Engine

i've now tried to load a MS3D model with no animations, and i cant see the textures on it (there're multiple materials in it). is a problem of the engine or of my code? i'm using the same way of the Special FX example when loading a 3DS file

you could you FMOD for example, if you dont do any commercial game with it (because you've to pay if yes) http://www.fmod.org/

try to use http://www.openal.org/ or directsound directly (i think it has positional audio support)

i've found a table with specs of various engines (free and not) and in the middle there's also Irrlicht!
look here http://www.conitec.net/a4faq.htm

I'd ask if it's possible to show lightmaps in a Q3 level and at the same time have some "normal" lights? I've tried in the 2nd example to add // create light node = smgr->addLightSceneNode(0, core::vector3df(0,0,0), video::SColorf(1.0f, 0.6f, 0.7f, 1.0f), 600.0f); scene::ISceneNodeAnimator...

thanks for ALWAYS working on my requests you're a invaluable worker

for example, try this model http://www.3dcafe.com/models/pine01.zip There's a wrong triangle beginning from the bottom of the tree and finishing on top of it, in anim8tor or other viewer i dont see that triangle. Also, is possible to set the leafs to be rendered on both sides and with alpha traspare...

also my 3ds files NOT exported from anim8tor or wings3d, many times doesnt work. they dont load because the file format is too newer. however with another 3ds loader code it loads :P niko, the 3ds models are rendered only with face normals? there's no options to have vertex normals? i've a tree to r...

yeah, usually if the first in place refuse the prize, the second can accept it,and so on. better follow this way.
i'm already preparing the demo, it'd be better with the features of the upcoming version of the engine, but i'll try to make however something good

in the site there're other shots so i post something that is not seen in them

yeah, but it's only the last shot

when i go home i'll take some ones, now i'm at work and this video card doesnt render it. check later

it's a demo that show a quite large metallic room with a bridge in the middle. everything is bumpmapped and every column, floor, wall, model is full shadowed based on spot lights movements in a extremely velocity (no slowness at all) and complexity, plus there's pex-pixel lighting and glowing effect...

niko, here's another good example http://www.ati.com/developer/sdk/rage12 ... cular.html

A demo that impressed me a lot is the one here http://realtimecg.gamedev-pt.net/downloads/illuminatu.rar taken from a nice game tutorial site in the download section http://realtimecg.gamedev-pt.net/ Maybe in the future Irrlicht will be like that? I love the fast shadows and the good use of textures...
