Hm, i've posted to that already in the other thread ;). Somehowthe patch works for me only if i remove the part where the colors are inverted.

Nice work hybrid. My patch really is just a hack that "works", but so far i'm not deep enough in that stuff to provide a good solution and i'd be very glad if this could be done with less buffers :-) But i want to give feedback about another thing: In readColor you invert all the values (2...

Thanks, that worked. I checked my code after that again and found out that my ambience colors where inverted when loading the .obj file and it does work now also in my code :)

Not sure if this is possible, because i failed so far doing it, but maybe someone has an idea: I have a model with material type EMT_TRANSPARENT_ALPHA_CHANNEL. My textures have pixels where the r,g,b compontent is set to 0, so only the alpha component should be used. I'd like it to be shown with the...

It's mostly Kanotix for me (a distro based on Debian-SID and Knoppix). Sometimes i boot a Win98SE, but that's mainly because i don't have other Windows-Versions here (yeah, you _can_ still buy Computers without Windows). But if i had the choice (spelled: money) my second System wouldn't be 98 but 20...

I think the best way is to check out some other OpenSource games. You can find a lot of them for example at http://sourceforge.net/ Try to find one that is already working and preferably similar to your own game. Otherwise I can just give some common hints when building classes. Like "if it doe...

Thx Pr3t3nd3r!

I just tested your code and it worked great :-)

is there a reson why most of my posts don't get any reply? Yeah - there is this really secret 'inner' forum where we decide to whom we answer and which persons we ignore ;-) Or it might be that you just didn't search enough for other posts in this forum which describe the same problem. Unfortunalty...

The format of your level really depends on what you need in your game. I can give you an example of a very simple levelformat (uses tinyXml and standard template lib): struct SkyboxSettings { SkyboxSettings(); void ReadFromXml(TiXmlElement * settings_); std::string mTextureUp; // texture filename st...

Creating an COctTreeTriangleSelector for OctTreeSceneNode's was also too slow for me. But the OctTreeSceneNode has certainly already an octree, so i wrote a selector which does use that octree and which get's created after the octree generation of the OctTreeSceneNode. I have still the problem that ...

Hm, i work with c::b on linux and on windows (with MingGW gcc). It worked by simply importing the dev-c++ project files in C::B. I use stl in my project and had no problems so far, but i also didn't know about the issue. So maybe i've just been lucky so far. Irrlicht itself does not use the standard...

Neither Math nor Quaternions are my strength, but the following code works for me and might be of use for others. The problem i solved with it is was the smooth alignment of objects (like cars) which move over an uneven floor. Originally i just aligned the up-vector directly to the normal of my slid...

What happens is that my game often starts freezing on each renderstep for several seconds. This happens after resizing the application window to fullscreen, or sometimes already when it's close to fullscreen. Even when starting the application several times without recompiling this bug appears only ...

Capping the framerate ain't necessarly a good idea (with animation stuff interpolating the positions is usually better), but basicly you just don't call the updates for drawing more often than you need it. Somthing like this (not compiled or checked): const int timeStep = 33; // 1000 / fps static in...
