LensFlareSceneNode

[gammaray]

I've modified the CLensFlareSceneNode (found somewhere on this forum a while back, also available with Acki's IrrExtensions) to work with irrlicht 1.3.1 - just thought someone might find it useful:)

You can grab the code here: http://satfilm.net.pl/~gammaray/CLensFlareSceneNode.zip

Thanks,
be sure i`ll use it
is a problem integrating Acki`s extensions into irr 1.3.1?, because i`m thinking about using his custom bones nodes (or something like that) in irr 1.3.1

I recommend to use the new skinnedmesh method from the SVN for bones.

I recommend to use the new skinnedmesh

I read a bit about it, could you tell me if this branch is complete or at least is support for .X files avalivable?
Also, is there any possibility to get some examples of basic usage of bones (source files)?

[hybrid]

The branch is basically feature complete. All mesh loaders are supported and should work as expected. It just needs more testing. So the more people try it and report back problems as well as success stories, the sooner it will be merged back into the core library.
Using the custom bones extension does not make sense anymore. There is no support for the latest Irrlicht releases (although it might be simple to update) and the new animation system provides even more features.

can u give me example how to use it ?

Pot news

[hybrid]

Compile it and link your app against the new dll. The API documentation can be created from the sources. Or do you mean the lensFlare?

[BlindSide]

can u give me example how to use it ?

For skinned mesh its very easy just
ISceneNode bone = myNode->getBoneSceneNode("BoneName");
bone->setRotation,Position, etc, etc...

Litte example

Code: Select all

int main()
{
	IrrlichtDevice *device =
		createDevice(EDT_OPENGL, dimension2d<s32>(640, 480), 16,
			false, false, false, 0);
			
	IVideoDriver* driver = device->getVideoDriver();
	ISceneManager* smgr = device->getSceneManager();

	IAnimatedMesh* mesh = smgr->getMesh("test.x");
	IAnimatedMeshSceneNode* node = smgr->addAnimatedMeshSceneNode ( mesh );

    IBoneSceneNode* hand;
    
	if (node)
	{
	    node->setJointMode (3); // 2 works too
        hand = node->getJointNode ("Bone09");

		node->setMaterialFlag(EMF_LIGHTING, false);
		node->setFrameLoop(24, 47);
	}

	smgr->addCameraSceneNodeFPS();

	while(device->run())
	{
        driver->beginScene(true, true, SColor(0,200,200,200));

        node->animateJoints();
        hand->setRotation ( vector3df (0,90,0) );

		smgr->drawAll();

		driver->endScene();
	}

	device->drop();

	return 0;
}

Maybe it`s little puzzed, but i hope you`ll get general idea.
I came to this experimantig so it may be not optimal.

thank you G3LO

i want example about how to use CLensFlareSceneNode
i tried to use it but error

thx

You should just create a new lens flare scene node. By passing it the scene manager it becomes added to it. Then it should render correctly.

thx hybird
i didn t know why

Code: Select all

#include "CLensFlareSceneNode.h"

Code: Select all

CLensFlareSceneNode *ab = new CLensFlareSceneNode(smgr->getRootSceneNode(),smgr,666,core::vector3df(100,100,100));

it error 102

/*
This tutorial will briefly show how to use the terrain renderer of Irrlicht. It will also
show the terrain renderer triangle selector to be able to do collision detection with
terrain.

Note that the Terrain Renderer in Irrlicht is based on Spintz' GeoMipMapSceneNode, lots 
of thanks go to him.
DeusXL provided a new elegant simple solution for building larger area on small heightmaps
-> terrain smoothing.
In the beginning there is nothing special. We include the needed header files and create
an event listener to listen if the user presses the 'W' key so we can switch to wireframe
mode and if he presses 'D' we toggle to material between solid and detail mapped.

I don't know what 102 means. You have to post the Message, not the number

[koller202]

i can compile already:D

Code: Select all

CLensFlareSceneNode *ab = new CLensFlareSceneNode(smgr->getRootSceneNode(),smgr,666,core::vector3df(100,1000,100));

but where lensflare in my screen i cannot see lenflare

Code: Select all

vector3df(100,1000,100))

i set camere target to this pos but i can t see

thank you

In order to see the the lens flare you need to set a texture for the node. I think there's a texture in the zip I provided.

Code: Select all

ILensFlareSceneNode* flare = new CLensFlareSceneNode(0, smgr, -1, vector3df(0,0,0));

flare->setMaterialTexture(0, driver->getTexture("../path/to/texture"));

// or, an alternative solution (on my system setTexture used on the flare node sometimes casues a crash)
// flare->getMaterial(0).Textures[0] = driver->getTexture("../path/to/texture")
