working on an editor for irrlicht

[bardmask]

wxWidgets-Irrlicht-Editor

irrlicht editor using wxwidgets similar to irredit

I'm new to all of this so I know the code is horrendous and the upload isn't organized but its simple enough to put together. i compiled both irrlicht and wxWidgets from source.

the current (barely) "working" features are:

- scene window with grid using the terrible built in maya camera(too sensitive and unusual key-binds, unity ruined me)

- hierarchy window that shows all nodes in scene except for cameras, no custom icons for them yet.

- toolbar that allows you to instantiate basic meshes like cube, cylinder, sphere, plane

this is a messy mash up of wxwidgets aui sample project with irrlichts win32 sample.

there is a lot of dead code that doesn't do anything it barely compiles so be gentle and it may need specific file locations for some things, im sorry.

this is a hobby project to help me learn c++. I know its a big leap for a beginner, but i do have decent c# knowledge.

i know loading in a mesh file for cube and plane aren't performant vs irrlichts built in versions, but I want all meshes to be loaded the same way until i write the custom methods for the other shapes as well so i can drop all the files at the same time.

EDIT:
added the custom grid scene node suggested by CuteAlien.

re-uploaded to github, properly this time using vs.

Very careful with the version number :-)

In case you are interested, there was once a grid node posted here: viewtopic.php?p=277317
And I made a somewhat updated version of that which can be found in here: https://github.com/mzeilfelder/irr-playground-micha

Good luck with the project!
