Irrlicht Engine

I didn't want to say this, because after that enless firestorm created by comparing Irrlicht to Ogre, I'm hesitant to bring the topic up. Reminds me a little of IBM PC vs. Apple computer. But I'll brave the topic: The Ogre terrain demo looks so fantastic compared to Irrlicht. I like how easy it is t...

Well, I don't think .Net is the problem. I tried that thread, but still couldn't get it to stop warping. Has anybody run the terrain example without the terrain warping, if so could you send me the code to do so? So I could see that it's possible. I'll run it in C++, anything just to see the example...

I don't see where to set that paramater. I'm using .net, and here is what I tried per your suggestion: Private terrain As ITerrainSceneNode terrain = smgr.AddTerrainSceneNode(path + "terrain-heightmap.bmp", Nothing, -1, New Vector3D, New Vector3D(40, 4.4F, 40), New Color(255, 255, 255, 255...

I'm sure this has been asked, but I've searched around and can't find an answer. I've run the terrain demo example and I can't figure out a way to make the terrain stop jiggling, altering its shape, as you move the camera. Is it possible to make the terrain look fixed no matter what the camera is do...

Acki wrote: Irrlicht supports only bone animations !!! Not true. I made a simple cube that tilts on its axis. I followed the suggestions and got both the Panda and the Quest exporters for 3DS Max. I'm using Max version 8. After wasting an entire night trying to get the cube to animate in Irrlicht I ...

It is working now, but there is still a quirk in the way VB.NET and maybe other 2004 .NET IDE's find files while debugging. Even if I do as you suggest and put the texture file in a folder with the .exe, the path that 3DSmax creates in the .my3d file will be fine for me, but not for distribution. I ...

I'm playing around with the terrain rendering tutorial and I'm wondering why the terrain changes as I fly the camera around. I've noticed that if I'm very high above it, it looks stable as I fly the camera around, but lower down the polys flex a little. I tried converting the height map to 129 x 129...

No I didn't. I didn't need to for Irrlicht to display the .3ds file I created with the same cube and texture. When Irrlicht tries to load the .my3d file it prints out in the console: "Could not open file of texture: " (heart symbol) "chris512.bmp" The path in the "debug.ase&...

Thanks for the tut. I was struggling to get a my3d scene loaded before I found your tut. I am having a problem though, when I add a texture to a simple cube Irrlicht reports that it can't load the texture. The path looks fine in the debug.ase file created by the exporter, but irrlicht can't find it....

You beat me to it, I was just about to write, that Irredit should have an option to store the paths in the .irr file relative to the scene file and not relative to the Irredit.exe

Wow, that was a quick reply mandrav!

I tried putting Irredit into the same folder as my executable, and in theory this should work, but Irredit doesn't play nice with the Irrlicht DLL I'm using with my VB.NET executable. Irredit crashes. If I replace my DLL with the one in the Irredit folder, then my app crashes! Either way they won't ...

First, follow these instructions from MS: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/visualc/usingpsdk/ Do everything it says. Next, look this over: http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=10531&highlight= Steps 1, and 2 are done if you followed the MS instructions, however step 3 ...

I'm new to Irredit, but there appears to be a problem with the way Irredit stores paths in the .irr file. I have set up my Irrlicht project folder and in it I have a scene folder, a mesh folder and a texture folder. I use Irredit to lay out the scene, but when I load the scene into my Irrlicht app. ...

I upgraded to C++ and VB 2005 Express. The problem is gone. I guess it is important to use the latest tools.

I'm using C++ 2005 Express, all is fine now, thanks.
