custom animators

okay... I wrote a new animator this morning. It's based on the FlyCircleAnimator but you can specify a vector3d angle that the circle is rotated on.

comments would be appreciated.

sounds cool..even though I'm not sure what its for..

once I learn the code it might be useful though

It would be cool if you post a tut on how to compile Irrlicht with your new code. Also a brief tut on how to use the animator.

cheers!

ps. Oh yes, great job!

Why not just use the existing dummy transform to turn the fly circle animator on its side?

Code: Select all

	// dummy transform puts light on its side
	irr::scene::IDummyTransformationSceneNode* dummy = smgr->addDummyTransformationSceneNode();
	dummy->getRelativeTransformationMatrix().setRotationDegrees(core::vector3df(30.f, 0.f, 0.f));

	node = smgr->addLightSceneNode(dummy, core::vector3df(0,0,0), 
		video::SColorf(1.0f, 0.6f, 0.7f, 1.0f), 600.0f);
	scene::ISceneNodeAnimator* anim = 0;
	anim = smgr->createFlyCircleAnimator (core::vector3df(0,150,0),250.0f);
	node->addAnimator(anim);
	anim->drop();
