Re: Irrlicht Port

#301 by juanjp600
It's grayed out because it's in a "#if 0" preprocessor block. That code is skipped by the compiler, so CodeBlocks grays it out so you know it's being skipped. This behavior doesn't always work right, so it can also happen with preprocessor blocks that are compiled.

The reason I put those small block comments in front of each of those lines was just to make sure that the script I used to generate that code was working properly. It's always easier to look at the beginning of the line, rather than try reading a string in the middle of it.

Also, a strange thing in the entAmount loop of the loadRMesh function is I always get a segfault in the last itteration because the value of entType is 10. Everything works correctly if I remove the last itteration.
I made some small changes to the RM2 format, because my RMESH to RM2 converter was broken (that's what I get for writing spaghetti code) so some data was missing. Here are the new files: https://www.mediafire.com/?gs115si6i0maa77
When Irrlicht finds the end of a file, it doesn't make changes to the variables that you give to the reading functions. So the RM2 loader would duplicate the last point entity because it tried reading too much data. Now I reset the entType variable to 10, so if Irrlicht fails to read the file, the loader will crash.

As for the irrToBtVec function, yeah I forgot to commit some changes to irrDynamics. I'm not sure how I forgot to commit FogBillboardFrag. Thanks for telling me, I fixed it just now.

Either way, it works, and worst case scenario is that the code that sets the Stamina needs to be moved.
3dworld.cpp, line 556:

Code: Select all

mainPlayer->boostStamina(10.f,-1.f);
I added this so I could sprint indefinitely for the 096 video.

If you want hype, look at the comments under the pathfinding video. It's ten times better than any percent you could get.

When it's done, I'd imagine that'll be when it is done.

I've not had much chance to work on anything today but I have learnt how to register functions in C/C++ for use in Lua scripts. Will probably, at some point, have to make a separate code that just is a lot of Lua function registers. For example, I want to eventually be able to have a standard Lua script for every item that contains functions that are run when things happen, like onPickup, and if I wanted it to (for a random example) run createMap when it is picked up, I'd need the function createMap to be registered for Lua use.

Still getting a feel for things in C++ but once I pick it up this should gain speed :)

Current in-progress code:

Code: Select all

int set_variable_via_lua(lua_State *L)
{
  int argc = lua_gettop(L);

  std::cerr << "-- set_variable_via_lua() called with "<<argc<< " arguments:" << std::endl;

  for ( int n=1; n<=argc; ++n ) {
    std::cerr << "-- argument " << n <<": "<< lua_tostring(L, n) << std::endl;
  }

  float testvar = lua_tonumber(L, 2);
  lua_pushnumber(L, testvar); // return value
  return 1; // number of return values
}

Code: Select all

    lua_State *L = lua_open();

    luaL_openlibs(L);
    lua_register(L, "set_variable_via_lua", set_variable_via_lua);
    char* file = "test.lua";
    std::cerr << "-- Loading file: " << file << std::endl;
    int s = luaL_loadfile(L, file);
    if ( s==0 ) {
      // execute Lua program
      s = lua_pcall(L, 0, LUA_MULTRET, 0);
    }
    lua_close(L);
Lua code:

Code: Select all

io.write("Running ", _VERSION, "\n")
a = set_variable_via_lua("Stamina", 100.0)
io.write("set_variable_via_lua() returned ", a, "\n")

Looking good guys. I'm learning how to model and I'm looking for extra practice. I don't know what format Irrlicht uses but I'm sure it's something common. If you guys need some programmer art or updated models/animations shoot me a PM or something. I've been a lurker here for a looong time, figured I'd make and account and start to contribute.

Right now I don't need any help with modelling, so far I have everything I need.

Last week I've been implementing shadow mapping:

I'm still trying to optimize it, right now rendering more than 4 point lights (24 spotlights) brings the framerate down very quickly. I'm not sure what else I can do to keep optimizing, so I'll keep lightmaps and use dynamic lights for very few effects.

Dynamic shadows? Nice. It could be usefull for producing effects we cant make with pre-rendered shadows, and keep the pre-rendered for every thing else.
I got an idea. Making anything not map related (Objects, npcs) produce dynamic shadows based on the lights, while the map related objects (Rooms) keep using the pre-rendered shadows.

It's like a Hubbawubba64 dream come true.
