ICameraSceneNode::setInputReceiverEnabled() - not working[?]

[Miik3h]

Hi,

I don't know if this is a bug, or I might be doing something wrong... but I have created a FPS camera and then used
irrCamera->setInputReceiverEnabled(false);

But it doesn't seem to do anything, I can still control the camera with my keyboard and mouse. The only way I managed to lose control of the camera is to create it like this

Code: Select all

// add a FPS camera with rotate and move speed set to 0.0f
irrCamera = irrSceneMgr->addCameraSceneNodeFPS(0, 0.0f, 0.0f); 

This works, but I have a feeling it might be stuffing up my 'custom' controller (that uses setRotation function).

Advice welcome.

There is no problem in the method.
I have used it many times .
May be there is something wrong with you programme.

maybe we can help you if you copy the whole intializing of the camera not only one line

This is all my code to initialize the camera.

Code: Select all

// In the header (.h) file
IrrlichtDevice*   irrDevice;
IVideoDriver*     irrVideoDriver;
ISceneManager*    irrSceneMgr;
IGUIEnvironment*  irrGUIEnv;
ICameraSceneNode* irrCamera;

Code: Select all

// In the (.cpp) file
irrDevice = createDevice(EDT_OPENGL, dimension2d<s32>(1024, 768), 16, false, true, this);
irrVideoDriver = irrDevice->getVideoDriver();
irrSceneMgr = irrDevice->getSceneManager();
irrGUIEnv = irrDevice->getGUIEnvironment();

// add a FPS camera with rotate and move speed set to 0.0f
irrCamera = irrSceneMgr->addCameraSceneNodeFPS(0, 0.0f, 0.0f);
irrCamera->setPosition(vector3df(0, 50, 0));
irrCamera->setInputReceiverEnabled(false);

Thats all really, although I have other code that indirectly modifies the camera.

Code: Select all

irrCamera = irrDevice->getSceneManager()->getActiveCamera();
NewtonBodySetUserData(nBody, irrCamera);

Then I try and move & rotate the camera through Newton callbacks ect.
At the moment I am not doing much with newton callbacks so I don't think it should make much difference.

What I am working on is largely based on the Newton Integration Tutorial http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/tut_newton.html

I have organised it as best I can into Classes with header files ect.

I am trying to go one step further then the tutorial by adding collision detection between the camera and the world. I thought it was going to be easy enough but I am quite lost at the moment.

I will post my code so far if someone agrees to help me (has knowledge in Newton ). I am using DevC++.
