Finally, a DirectX 10 video driver for Irrlicht

[robmar]

okay, I´ll find some time over the holidays to go through it. If you have a sample that shows the problem it would help.

[Granyte]

Since I didn't
get my head around fixing this i'm releasing this as it is

https://www.dropbox.com/s/3ko3hlrhgxusw ... VF.7z?dl=0

This contains DX11 and new Texture

Dx111 Supports instancing and those texture types

Also note i'm a couple versions back so the latest changes to the branch are not ye implemented

[robmar]

Okay, does this have one working sample I can kick off with? And something that identifies the problem? Just need a starting point as you know what its like working on someone else´s code...

[Granyte]

Actualy no but it's really simple I just need to pass more then 2 texture and the 3rd never get sampled

But I just figured it might have to do with the samplers and how i'm using it in my project.

But if you wanna work on something the instancing and texture sample are almost working with dx11 I just got a little lazy so they should be easy to fix and should teach you how mos new things work in this version

[robmar]

But you must have one sample working with it surely? Can you put one in?

[Granyte]

I can but it's gonna take some time where I did most of the work was in my main project so I would need to get them working outside of it

[robmar]

So its not longer compatible with any of the Irrlicht samples?

[Granyte]

all the examples are still compatible they are built in the example 64 bit

but they don't show the new features the two example that show the new features are broken on dx11 (only the shaders they use a re not working) but work on dx9

[robmar]

So does the "special effects" example work? Which examples don´t work, and which two shaders need changing to work with dx11?

Is worth while if I go through it at this time?

[Granyte]

They are the two example I added the instancing one and the texture array one

Special effect mostly work there are still issue with material blending and z sorting but I kinda gave up on this

[robmar]

Happy new year! I hope its a good year for all Irrlicht users!

The texture array one is the one that only works with two textures?

Do materials still work with up to 4 textures?

So apart from the new facilities and blending/z-sorting, is the driver fully functional with Irrlicht 1.7.3? (apart from the awful stencil shadow thing which doesn´t work anyway

[Granyte]

As far as I know no texture works with more then 2 textures but that might just be a issue with my personal code that's why I would prefer some on else to write an example using more then 4 texture so that it does not have the same mistake I did

[robmar]

So materials only work with the first two textures?

That´s got be to easy enough to debug, or is there some complexity?

Hi,

Thanks to Zerochen's patch and code posted by Granyte D3D11 is enabled again!

Cheers,

[robmar]

How do we download the complete Irrlich package with Grantye´s DSD11 driver?
