In 1.8 I need to write the shader myself, and it only works with some ugly hacks (use vertex colors to encode joint indices so the shader can use the proper matrices), but there's a branch on the repository (shader-pipeline) that supports hardware skinning by default, so I'll be switching to it.Phanalax wrote:So does Irrlicht have native support for hardware skinning, or do you need to write the shader yourself? Hardware skinning can be a huge boost for performance when there are multiple animated objects in view.

Nice! Hopefully it will make the game more stable and look better.juanjpro wrote:But there's a branch on the repository (shader-pipeline) that supports hardware skinning by default, so I'll be switching to it.
