Hi,

I am trying to print the video mode list with a printf statment and am getting problems? How do i do it with this given.

Code: Select all

	s32 video_count = 0;
	s32 i = 0;
	device = createDevice(video::EDT_NULL,
		core::dimension2d<s32>(0, 0), 16, false, false, NULL);

	if(!device)
		return 0;

	IVideoModeList *video_list = device->getVideoModeList();
	video_count = video_list->getVideoModeCount();

	
	for( i = 0; i < video_count; i++)
	{
		printf(" Item:%i Mode:%s\n", i, video_list);//??

	}
	
	video_list->drop();
	device->drop();

Ok, now how do i print the list or get the info from video_list?
I tried several different things and am not getting any text. Am I not doing something right here?

hrm, that doesnt seem to help very much. it doesnt seem to list video modes so much as give the current stats (res, color depth, etc)

Ok, so how do I get the list of available video choices..(part of that email i sent you about a template idea i wanted to make for a beginner, like I am)

from the documentation, i cant really see how you can get a list form it-- just the current status.

here is a link to Saigumi's XML gui project:

Got It!

For anyone wanting to know how to enumerate em, here ya go..

Code: Select all

IrrlichtDevice *device = 0;
#include <stdio.h>
int main(int argc, const char *argv[])
{
	s32 video_count = 0;
	s32 i = 0;
	device = createDevice(video::EDT_NULL,
		core::dimension2d<s32>(0, 0), 16, false, false, NULL);

	if(!device)
		return 0;

	IVideoModeList *video_list = device->getVideoModeList();
	video_count = video_list->getVideoModeCount();
			
	for( i = 0; i < video_count; i++ )
	{
		printf(" Item:%i Resolution:%ix%i Depth:%i\n", i, video_list->getVideoModeResolution(i), video_list->getVideoModeDepth(i));

	}

This took way to long for me to figure out..
