Irrlicht Engine

where is 0.25?

even the getTime() is not accurate enough, and will slow down during low fps

i suggest you do a time slicing

float freq = 1.0f/120.0f; // how many times u want to update per second
float accumulative_step = 0.0f;
u32 lasttick = timer->getRealTime();//timer is your device->getTimer()
u32 curtick ...

for .x or .ms3d format, they points to all their textures, so if you store your N textures where the model file can find, irrlicht will load them

also you dont need to load a texture and apply to it manually

hi
what version of irrlicht does this work on?
thx

Error 9 error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "public: __thiscall irr::scene::CCameraRPGSceneNode::CCameraRPGSceneNode(class irr::scene::ISceneNode *,class irr::scene::ISceneManager *,int const &,class irr::IrrlichtDevice *,class irr::scene::ITriangleSelector *,class irr::core::string<char,class ...

thx sgt_pinky for the tip
it could be computational expensive to call it every frame tho

but for grass and trees, they can be calculated when camera moves, since tree and grass obviously dont move by themselfs

this should optimiz abit

thx again

thats not what i mean

i mean i want my terrain clipping to be far away, and grass clipping very near

thx anyway

i mean, i want my terrain far clipping at say 10000.0f
enemy meshes farclip at say 4000.0f
grass farclip at 2000.0f

have any one done this?
i think this will need to recompile irrlicht

i have similar thing happening here
i only notice this on windows vista and directx
windows xp + directx is fine
vista + openGL is fine

im trying to using alpha channel on my terrain.
i got my alpha channel image, but the edges are jagged, so i figure i need to set MaterialTypeParm to something low, but how to do it?

also i cant get second texture to load in directx, only in openGL
in directx, my terrain texture is weird black and ...

thats pretty good, thx
now i can do my whole level in 3d modeller

i dont like to create level in bsp, but i'll like to enjoy the octree optimization, so can i apply octree on any static models?

what if the framerate gets extreem bad? will the bullet passes through player?

you can also do simple encryption, by open up zip with hex editor, adding junks here and there, so people have no idea what kind of file is this, and then change the addZipFileArchive() function to remove the junks you added

I just use a define to tie into whether I am compiling in DEBUG or RELEASE modes in VisualStudio. It's then "automatic" and I get the best of both worlds:


#ifdef _DEBUG
int main()
#else
INT WINAPI WinMain(HINSTANCE hInst,HINSTANCE,LPSTR strCmdLine,INT)
#endif
{
HANDLE ExistingGameMutex ...
