Here's an example, core::position2d<s32> mouse_pos=Device->getCursorControl()->getPosition(); core::line3df line=Device->getSceneManager()->getSceneCollisionManager()->getRayFromScreenCoordinates(mouse_pos, Device->getSceneManager()->getActiveCamera()); IsceneNode* object=smgr->getSceneCollisionMana...

try just 0,0,10 that should be right in front of you

10, 15, 1 might just be above and to the side of your view

You can do all this in one line

Code: Select all

scenemgr->addCubeSceneNode(5, c, -1, core::vector3df(0,0,10));

You might want to change the position to something other then 0,0,0. It is quite possible that you are inside your gun and polys aren't visible from their back side.

raven_coda

you need to call updateAbsolutePosition() on each node before you call getTransformedBoundingBox

raven_coda

are you saying it's faster to call

M.transformVect(pos, pos);

then

M.transformVect(pos);

raven_coda

Maybe I found a bug...

If I change

Code: Select all

M.transformVect(pos, pos);

to

Code: Select all

M.transformVect(pos);

it works;

Alright so maybe I don't understand what this does. Just as a sanity check, if I had the following core::matrix4 M=phys->getBody(i)->getMeshNode()->getAbsoluteTransformation(); pos=core::vector3df(0,0,0); M.transformVect(pos, pos); shouldn't pos=getBody(i)->getMeshNode()->getPosition() ?

Code: Select all

core::vector3df direction = turret->getPosition() - Obj2Face->getPosition(); 
turret->setRotation(direction.getHorizontalAngle());

How can I get the Absolute Position of a vertex? I can get the vertex position from the mesh and then I try to apply the absolutetransfor from the node but that doesn't quite work right. That seems to just add the nodes position to the vertex's and not take into affect the rotation of the node. Any ...

hmm well, as long as you constantly follow your target then you could just update it every frame like this:

Code: Select all

core::vector3df direction = turret->getPosition() - ship->getPosition(); 
turret->setRotation(direction.getHorizontalAngle());

For one of my projects I made a new rotate animator that rotates a node from a to b over a set time. It's based off the flystraight animator.There is also a bool for repeat where it starts going back and forth from a and b. Works well for the camera in fly bys or whatever else. We are using it to an...

your not moving because it's probibly round down. Replace

Code: Select all

int move (IAnimatedMeshSceneNode * a,int x,int y,int z)

with

Code: Select all

int move (IAnimatedMeshSceneNode * a,f32 x,f32 y,f32 z)

The my3d plugin for 3ds max 7 works fine for me in 8. However, I cannot get it to work in 9 and so I also am interested in a plugin for 3ds max 9.

I realize that's the jest of it but I'm looking for any small details etc. I have just finished taking a class on digital law and this is just the kind of problems I have been looking at. It's a problem in the DMCA where it favors the larger corporations and not the little guys. Whatever happened to...

CRAZY!!!!

Is there anywhere that I can view this video? I'd like to see just what they're claim they own. If I can't view it would someone be so kind as to email it to me or PM me?
