Irrlicht Xtra v0.51
A happy new year everyone!
And to show you that things are still moving on this 3d Xtra, i just put up a new version, v0.51. It has new methods taken from the IMeshManipulator-Interface, like makePlanarTextureWrapping(). See the Irrlicht docs for more info.
The time bomb got removed, so the Xtra can be used infinetely. It has a registration reminder though. The size of the Xtra has dropped to 512Kb only. Either UPX did a great job to crunch the binaries, or I forgot something really important… yet it appears not so, everything seems to be fine.
More stuff to come, I keep adding methods and interfaces.
If you get crashes when starting up the Irrlichttest.dir movie, make sure that the media folder is in the same directory than the movie. That is, that meshes and textures can really be loaded.
Have fun, and a happy 2007!

I’m going to be freed up in a week or so, so I’m definitely going to test this out - does it work now with Director 8.5.1? ( it was crashing in an earlier version ).
Also, this is OT but have you looked into bringing other 3D engines into an Xtra ( eg Ogre3D )?
Regards…

Dear Christopher,
could you please explain what you mean by “registration reminder”? I would like to consider your excellent Xtra for a small scale production and would appreciate you dropping me a line or two about registration options.
Many thanks. Spreche immer noch Deutsch!
Kind regards,
Hans.
