And obviously you don't want to run directly away from the enemy... it might be optimal in getting distance between the AI and the enemy but if you're running directly away from someone you're an easy shot (assuming guns are the primary weapon) because in their view you're effectively not moving, ju...

Plus it wouldn't only apply to humans so probably shouldn't mention humans!

To defend myself you never said you were going to actually release anything, I was expecting you to send it to me first so I could add it into IrrPhysx properly... simple as that... After the confusion was sorted out and it was clear there had been some misunderstanding I apologised for my outrage a...

In IrrAI i have a character class which will run away from enemies and it basically says if I see an enemy then run off to a random point in the map... That's horribly basic behaviour and can result in the player running INTO the enemy which isn't always sensible! But it wouldn't be too much work to...

As IrrPhysx is mentioned I thought I'd drop in my 2 cents... I'm guessing it's definitely possible to do... maybe not easy... You may be better off using Havok for the physics too as I'm sure it would be easier to get working with the animation libraries than it would be if you were using Physx... I...

Well CMeshBuffer still has another Append method that takes an array of vertices and indices to append... so I just switched to using that one... but surely the missing Append method could just do the same as what I did as I simply accessed the vertices and indices in my SMeshBuffer and passed them ...

Any comment on the empty CMeshBuffer::Append(SMeshBuffer) function? Was that intentional? Been fixed in SVN?

Issues upgrading to 1.6

So I just updated IrrAI to work with Irrlicht 1.6 and I ran in to a couple of nasty issues... Firstly my waypoint meshes and the links joining them together weren't rendering... I eventually tracked it down to the fact that the entirity of CMeshBuffer::append(SMeshBuffer) has, at some point, been co...

Wow... just noticed that the last time I updated IrrAI was in Feb... And that was probably just to bring it up to date to work with Irr 1.5! But hey... been a bit busy and all that! So yeah managed to get IrrAI up to date with Irrlicht 1.6 (see the first post in this thread for the download link). S...

the one on the right i guess but it looks like you need to cap the highlights a bit as they seem to be going a bit higher than they should be at the extreme.

You don't need to have a seperate mesh for the physical representation of an object.. you can use the render mesh but often that will be less than optimal if the render mesh is a higher poly count than is necessary for the physical representation. Are you basically wanting an automated way of gettin...

Well the way I did it was to load up platform.ms3d (the render model, nice quality to look good when rendered) and then just build up some cube shapes around the platform shape to use less polys than in the render model. Then I deleted the platform.ms3d geometry leaving just the cubes that were need...
