[A. Percy]

And if you saw the help file and found that airplane, yes, I'm making a flight simulator in autoit.

Thank you!

[JRowe]

Very good, A.Percy. This is awesome.

[DexterMorgan]

Amazing... Great job

[A. Percy]

Thank you! Tomorrow I'll restart my programming routine. Finally I did the revalidation of my pilot licence

[JRowe]

Awesome, A.Percy, and congratulations. Flying must be a lot of fun

Just finished copying & pasting all the functions from the helpfile to the au3.api file in scites install dir.

This gives code completion for the Au3Irrlicht functions!

Just add these lines to Autoit install dir\SciTe\api\au3.api

It's great to able to give back something for this great library!

Hi Alexsandro!

How do I stretch a texture so it is only drawn once on a node?

Hi!

Try use:

ScaleTexture( NodePtr [, Scale [, Scale2 ]] )

Hi!

Try use:

ScaleTexture( NodePtr [, Scale [, Scale2 ]] )

Yeah, I tried using that function, but I didn't quite get how it works.

I tried extremely high values, low values and values very near zero but nothing >_<

Hmmm... Take a look on "sea.au3" example.

Hmm, I don't know, I just don't get it.

Maybe it's something wrong with my code?

#include "IrrlichtPluginUtils.au3"

SetWindowCaption("Shooter!")



$light = AddLightSceneNode( 0, 0, 0, -2000, 1, 1, 1, 10000 )
$camera = AddCameraSceneNodeFPS( 0, 100, 200, 1, 0.08 )
SetPosition( $camera, 0, 100, -500 )
SetTarget( $camera, 0, 0, 0 )




$cube=GetMesh(@ScriptDir&"\cube.3ds")


$node=AddAnimatedMeshSceneNode($cube)
SetScale($node,1.10,1.10,1.10)
SetMaterialTexture($node,0,GetTexture(@ScriptDir&"\texture.jpg"))
ScaleTexture($node,0)
SetPosition($node,0,1, 0 )


While IrrRun()
    
    BeginScene(true,true,255,255,255,255)
    
    SceneDraw()
    GUIDraw()
    EndScene()
    

WEnd

I didn't find a solution, but I'll develop this feature today.

@A. Percy

How are things going with the flight simulator you said you were working on in post101??

Hi!

The flight simulator development is paused until I make this function work: getCollisionResultPosition

To make some meshes a bit more rounded, I finished the conversion of CreateMeshWelded, so the aircraft will have more softness in the forms.
