Materials? SMaterial?

The_Irrlicht_noob · Post by **The_Irrlicht_noob** » Sat Nov 05, 2005 1:43 am

I want all my models to use "setMaterialFlag( EMF_FOG_ENABLE, 1);" So I want to use that function in the "IVideoDriver" ... But it doesn't work... So I have maybe to use the "setMaterial" function (as "IVideoDriver" got) But I don't know how to make a SMaterial..
Help

so set the fog to a node of the model not to every material

Ok... But I want all objects to simulate fog... And I think there is a way: To use that "IVideoDriver" and set a material to it.
Anyone? Please help!

Could have an Object Manager that stores an array/vector/map what eva ... of pointers to your objects. It calls a function that steps through each object flagging the effect, such as fog.

Or you could try and edit the source so that you can call from IVideoDriver a function that links with you SceneManager and flags all SceneNodes, but thats gettin difficult...

Yea, it must be like that. I was just looking for a faster/better solution.
