Hexagon Grids
Posted: Sun May 24, 2009 10:05 am
Here you can find my Hexagon Grid project. It doesn't currently have any plans to be used by me, but it was a fun learning process. I based the code from an article that I found at http://www.codeproject.com/KB/graphics/ ... part1.aspx.
It's fairly easy to use, with the code being:
Looks easy enough, right?
http://www.deliciousjesus.com/wp-conten ... 20Grid.rar (be sure to get the whole thing, the forums broke the link) to download the source and executable. Keep in mind that I don't comment my code very well, but if you have any questions feel free to ask!

I might have a 3d implementation up soon.
It's fairly easy to use, with the code being:
Code: Select all
#include "Main.h"
#include "Hexagon.h"
#include "Grid.h"
#pragma comment(lib, "irrlicht.lib")
int main()
{
IrrlichtDevice* dvc = createDevice(EDT_OPENGL, dimension2d<s32>(800, 600), 32, false, true, true, 0);
IVideoDriver* drv = dvc->getVideoDriver();
dvc->setWindowCaption(L"Hexagon Grid");
Grid grid;
grid.create(7, 7, 35); // 7x7 grid - side of hexagon is 35 units. 7 is max, see grid.h for why. I'd like suggestions here
while(dvc->run())
{
drv->beginScene(true, true, SColor(255, 0, 0, 0));
grid.draw(drv);
drv->endScene();
}
dvc->drop();
return 0;
