Irrlicht Engine

How can I get a work-able version of this scene node?

I don't think FMX was ready/happy to release the source for this and i find it unlikely that he will do as he's quite busy with other projects at the moment!

Oh the link was taken out, hmm. I have the old version with the code, no executable or demo, but if he approved, I could upload it.

Soo...does anyone have the source for this?

I'd recommend looking into something like PhysX and using Cloth Physics instead of this scene-node, because simulating cloth like I did here (manually in software, per vertex, per mesh-buffer) is really slow and bulky (using lots of them is worse than adding more skin-weighted characters).

Maybe OK for a demo or something, but definitly not practical for "real" applications (no collision-detection either if I remember correctly).

But now that Irr-1.5 is out, it might be worth a conversion.
although I still doubt the "efficiency" of using this scene-node over dedicated Physics-API Cloth-Physics solutions

You could check out irrPhysX which supports Cloth objects too

If there's anymore interest then I'll look into it, otherwise don't expect to see anymore updates

I dont know about Physx,how about ODE?

a 1.5 demo would be cool wheeeeeee

is there any news on this scene node even the old source would due. really want this one.

<Bump>

maybe you can ask Halifax for the old code

I`d love checking this out too.

I think this still holds true, don't reckon he'll be working on it anymore so you'd have to get the old source code off someone else and upgrade it to your current version of Irrlicht you're using.

Well, I hope some kind person will dig it from his archive and reupload it somewhere. It`s released much before I became a member here...
