Irrlicht Engine

I have a Lifetime subscription. Well worth it.

I haven't loaded every single asset in the Irrlicht meshviewer but of the ones that I have they seemed to load just fine.

DX11 supports DX10 video cards and even exposes extra features - such as Compute Shader 4 on DX10 cards. I would skip DX10 and go straight to DX11.

Congratulations. Well done! A good starting point. I've been working on a DX11 driver for Spintz's 3Demon port of Irrlicht. I haven't had a whole lot of time to work on it but you can see an initial demo here: http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=36732 One of the changes from DX9 t...

NO! I used a mulipass material. I even put it in bold!

NO RENDER TARGETS.

Just my $0.02 I'm implementing a buffer system in my own version of Spintz's 3Demon engine. I've already added the Direct3D11 driver and I'm now in the process of adding flexible buffer formats. [I'm very busy at work at the moment, so I'm only planning things and trying things out in source.] From ...

More than three years ago: multipass fur

Well, how do you think I implemented this fur multipass shader in Irrlicht, like three years ago?

I can render one million textured instanced cubes at 26fps, but not with vanilla Irrlicht. See my post in the thread here: http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=34448&start=19 Irrlicht is great for simple stuff and prototyping but you will hit issues as soon as you start to requ...

In the example below: The mesh is loaded from: "C:\Projects\OurProject\OurProgram\Objects\Horses" The texture is relative to this, in "C:\Projects\OurProject\OurProgram\Textures\Reins", or "../../Textures/Reins/strap.jpg" as it is stored in the .x file. Have you tried ...

I was thinking that an easier way to do this (Particularly in OpenGL) is to use vertex attribute buffers. Basically just include a core::array of floats in a meshbuffer (Along with the name of that attribute An interesting idea but we'll hit issues when we want to use vertex elements that are not 3...

The array indices in your code snippet do not make sense. Why start at 4 and skip 5 and 7 leaving uninitialised array elements? And don't forget to check that the keyMapSize parameter to the addCameraSceneNodeFPS function is correct - your seems to be set to 11 for nine elements...

I'm almost done with my Irrlicht scene node for hardware skinning Cal3D models (with blending). This will give a boost to rendering skinned models until support can be added to core Irrlicht. Irrlicht's performance against other engines is one of its major weaknesses; I consider current unmodified I...

There's a Depth Of Field demo on my website. It's pretty old now, but would serve as a starting point.

Here's my list of additions/enhancements. There's plenty more, but this will do to start: Flexible vertex formats - move away from 3 fixed vertex formats Material system - collapse filter modes to a single flag, etc Scenegraph - reduce redundant node updates, etc Hardware skinning PVS system - no mo...
