Irrlicht Engine

Hiya,

I have tried the tutorial and it compiles and starts loading and crashes with the normal windows error (the send error report one). It crashed after the line "needed 36ms to create OctTree SceneNode".

Has anyone else had this problem? I have tried copy and pasting the code from the tutorial but get the same results.

Thanks in advance

No, it's working as expected. Also Try examples 7 and 16 which also use q3 maps.

Well I have managed to pin point the cause of the problem and now everything works fine, but I have the mouse in the middle of my screen

, this line:

Code: Select all

device -> getCursorControl() -> setVisible(false);

Any ideas why this would cause a crash?

Yes, someone reported this to fail in Irrlicht 1.1 precompiled Linux version. So I assume you're using a very old version of Irrlicht somehow. Just recompile the dll and you're fine. But an even better idea would be to update...

I have downloaded the latest version

1.3 I think

But you're using Linux? Then recompile and check your project settings. Maybe you use a library from some different directory.

No

It's just that we had this problem once with Linux. Just be sure that your download was ok and that no console output shows an error. If it still fails you should recompile from scratch.

What file is it that is causing the problem?

That's what you have to find out...
