Whoah. This is looking good.

I've got the problem solved. And it wasn't exporter.

The problem was with models - not every verticle had assigned bone or so.

This is a serious problem. Much of my .x exports from blender are looking this way:



And i don't know if it's Blender's fault or is it Irrlicht...

I'll add that much animated objects has these verticles. It's happening when i select "export armatures" in Blender to make bones impact on the model (animate it).

You might have done this, but just to make sure, have you enable the lightning on the terrain model? like:

Code:

terrain->setMaterialFlag(EMF_LIGHTING, true);

It's obvious one (to me).

@moi, 

regarding the export. It might be the obj export plugin you use for blender. If it has options, look to make sure there is something to preserve hard edges.

I will, thanks.

Yeah, warp looks warpier now

I've just tested your project.

It's awesome. Don't waste your talent. Making something outstanding  

Hey, the fireball effect looks great!

Althrought, warp could use some more power. 

Meantime, i have problem with .x file. Any idea why verticles may be so mixed?




Just look at guy's feet. Verts went mad.

@EDIT

Fixed it.

It sure looks like there's something weird going on with the normals and/or the lighting.

I've tried changing normals's settings, no use. The same lighting works fine for .3ds.

Or maybe, the light direction is wrong? Looks like it facing upward instead downward

It's facing towards point 0,0,0 from point 15,60,5. Map from downwards looks just the same as from upwards.

The second screenshot has all the edges set to be smooth. You lost the smoothing group information in the export.

Not sure if those black patches are on account of the smoothing groups. It's possible. Could also be non-perpendicular normals.

I'm unsure how do i fix that?

could be a problem with UV wrapping

UV wrapping seems fine to me.

I've still got completely no idea how to fix it 

I wouldn't call it "Public Investigator" at all. Maybe something with Detective? Or Strict Investigator.

I wonder how can i fix that.

Models are being made in Blender, and we're ( me and my brother ) are using materials, not an uv map (one .png or .bmp). We use colors, but wanted to use textures.

Here's a comparison:

1) .3ds



2) .obj




No matter how big ambient color will be, it stays the same at .obj.

Well, i've made it look better using .3ds file instead of .obj. Here's how it looks now:



But, is there a way to make this lighting smoother? As you can see it isn't as smooth as it was on (not working) .obj.

Hi.

I need to make effective & nice looking light for one big object which cannot be a terrain.

This is what i could achieve with

Code:

video::SLight light_data;
light_data.AmbientColor = video::SColorf(1.0,1.0,1.0);
light_data.DiffuseColor = video::SColorf(1.0, 1.0, 1.0);
light_data.SpecularColor = video::SColorf(0.5,0.5,0.5);
light_data.CastShadows = true;
light_data.Radius = 745.0;
light_data.Type = video::ELT_DIRECTIONAL;
    
scene::ILightSceneNode* light = menage->addLightSceneNode(0, core::vector3df(60,40,50));
light->setLightData(light_data);

I need help ASAP  !

If you have any idea on how to make good-looking lights with possible shadow dropping, write now!  

Posted at an devlog topic.

It looks outstanding.

I wonder how big customizeability does the games made in it have.


And my main & loved question: What language do you use & graphics engine? 

Looking good 

Black hole could do a little more effective warp effect through. It's not too big.

I guess this is not in game engine right?

I'm his brother, and we thought of it. Maybe we will make a game out of it later on. Currently it's all only his models 0% of my scripting. We'll see how will it look in C++...

I've made some tileset...



I know... I'm not too talented
