Irrlicht Engine

Hi, just wanted to let you know that I just released irrKlang 0.6. It has some nice new features like MOD playback and .NET support.

Thanks, niko!

I'll let you know if it works for me now in Linux with my ALSA audio device, as soon as I get home tonight.

Thank you for taking care of this bug.

Also, if you don't mind, I have a little question:

Do you think it's possible to use IrrKlang.NET 0.6 with mono (.NET-compatible environment for Linux, with VB.NET compiler, loads .NET assemblies)?

Thanks.
Benedikt

Hey niko,

Sorry to say I still get the error.

Weird... If you feel we can talk about this and explore my systems deeper (:p), just add me to your msn buddy list. I'll glad to help.

Also...

I've tried IrrKlang.NET on linux with mono. The MoMA (Mono Migration Analyzer) told me there are no potential issues, so I tried..

All the examples C#, VB.NET compile OK, but the engine fails to initialize and all bombs out with a segmentation fault and a stacktrace... Nice experiment though...

Thanks for the great release, now I'm able to use irrKlang in .NET and in my projects,

thanks Niko.

That's really strange. And other ALSA applications don't give that error? Does it print anything else in addition?

I guess mono just don't work because they don't support mixed mode assemblies yet.

All other applications do not have any problems with the sound card. Makes me wonder if there's some capabilities interface in ALSA to query the device?

It also only prints that, but then the engine goes on normally, but with complete silence.

Yes, that's what I thought also. Still: I will need a mono wrapper anyway in the future for my project, so I might even code one...

I know this has been mentioned before, but I was just wondering if
A) you were planning on releasing the static library for 0.6
and B) if so, when?

Eagerly awaiting with bated breath.

Just blogged about it: http://www.irrlicht3d.org/pivot/entry.php?id=495
It will take just a little time, I'm really annoyed by this dely as well. It's not my fault, I'm going to explain it when it is released
