irrlich atributes system is suck
my loader use this sistem to get atributes like position,size etc
but this atributes load textures from materials automaticly !

I was interested in seeing the compiled demos before going off and registering for an SDK, but you don't seem to have included the PhysX *redistributable* dlls. Any chance?

PhysXCore.dll is a part of PhysX Drivers

only includes and libs are a part of PhysX SDK ..

Ah, right. A note in your readme for those who haven't used PhysX before may be helpful.

BTW Three of the samples fail with:
Could not load mesh, because file could not be opened.: 20kdm2.bsp

My apologies. I read the file and missed that message. My brain must have been in backwards.

sorry to bump this,but I seem to be getting a linker error caused by SIrrlichtCreationParam,and when I looked for it in any of the source,it was not there. So how would I go about using your sdk now?

Do you use the same Irrlicht version as he does? 'cause this function wasn't in earlier Irrlicht-versions there...

I guess he uses Irr-1.1. May be u should use it also...
If it doesnt help, so try to recompile and build irrlicht, it helps by some Linker errors...

Yes, curently project use Irrlicht 1.1

dmitrii -- Nice! I just tried your jf2 project. It's so cool.

I like your "cloth and chars" demo. Just seeing physX's cloth inside irrlicht is well worth the download alone. A video of this would be killer!

My frame rate dropped from like 60 fps to 20 fps after holding down the "Z" or "X" key. There's like hundreds of tiny squares and spheres on the floor. Also, if you turn on debug, it drops your fps big time.

Ha, ha! The care demo is funny!

When you try to make a hard turn it flips the car. How do you unflip the car once it's on it's back?

Any chance of supporting the other physX's features like grass, ragdoll, explosion, fluid/water, smoke/cloud, and cloth tearing in jf2? I've posted some of the examples from SDK here:

http://irrlicht.sourceforge.net/phpBB2/ ... hp?t=17669

I'm so loving aegia's PhysX SDK right now. I can't wait until they release the PCIe version. I don't have any card slot left in my computer except for the PCIe slot.

It would totally rock to see the physics rendered in accelerated hardware.

veegun
in 0.3.7 i've changed module system
all modules request only irr::IrrlichtDevice*

also I added physx fluid support
but i cant image how to render this fluid in irrlicht

if you know how to use Implicit Meshes with irrlicht, please talk me how

if you want, we can rewrite some ageia examples for this wrapper

any chance you'll post 0.3.7?

dmitrii, that sounds cool. But my coding skills isn't very good. I've been trying to build jf2 to work with irrlicht v1.2, new ageia physx sdk, and new freetype2 without much success. It compiles but does not link correctly yet.

I was thinking about submitting some of the ageia physx examples to you to add to jf2 framework. Once I get past the linker error that is.

Yes, my plan is to see if I can get something like the grass example to work under your jf2 framework.

The more people who pitch in the faster/more stable jf2 physx framework will become.

grass example is very slow with irrlicht
