EditIrr

[Sudi]

We are happy to announce the release of EditIrr Alpha 1.0

It is a SceneLayout Editor for Irrlicht.

Website: http://editirr.sourceforge.net/

Programmers:

3DModelerMan
Sudi (me)

It uses Irrlicht for rendering and wxWidgets for GUI.

Currently it supports all basic things you need to create a Irrlicht scene and even more.

Features

1. Undo/Redo System
2. Adding/Removing SceneNodes
3. Adding Animators (currently you can only remove them with undo)
4. Custome SceneNodes (via plugin check the Plugin folder)
5. Custome SceneNodeAnimators (via plugin check the Plugin folder)
6. Moving/Scaling/Rotating SceneNodes
7. Saving several Nodes as a prefab (select the nodes and then hit File->Export (prefabs are saved in the Library folder))
8. Loading created prefabs (Add->Add Object)
9. UserData (yeah finaly a editor that uses userdata )
10. Copy selected SceneNodes (shortcut ctrl+shift+c)
11. Material Editor (will feature more in the future)
12. Copy a Material of the selected SceneNode (shortcut ctrl+c)
13. Changing Parent-Child relation by simply draging SceneNodes in the TreeView
14. Scene loading/saving (of course)
15. Change working directory to directly have relative filepaths for your game

ok can't think of anything more yet.

anyways some pictures:



And last but not least the Download(Rev 175).

PS: incase you wanna checkout the source or even contribute to the project there is an svn repository on sourceforge

Very nice

suggestions:
allow resizing of the scene graph tab,

for the moving arrow, make it so you drag it the direction the arrow is pointing to move it, instead of right/left no matter which direction it is, that gets really annoying.

btw, the material editor is amazing

also, it won't let me delete the default scene node (the dude with the axe), but I can delete others I add

and when I import a .b3d mesh, it doesn't show up anywhere



that should keep you guys busy keep up the good work


edit: and changing to orthographic makes everything go crazy

[ACE247]

This is just plain awesome!
Will get the source and edit improve etc whatever I can.
The IrrEdit Monopoly has ended!(If I may say so)

[Lonesome Ducky]

I think it's safe to say I have a man crush on you now.

I ran the EditIrr on my pc and whenever I want to change video mode to DirectX 9 it just jumps back to Ogl after I restart the editor.
And also a feature you could add is PathCreator so we could add paths for objects Etc to follow.

WOOOOOOOOOOOO

Nice one Sudi eally versatile to have the source too, allows ability to add stuff like your own shaders in the preview or xeffects in the viewer easily, i know blind did it with irredit scripting but it seems rather difficult and time consuming to report your own code twice.

I am currently making a gpu powered(hopefully realtime when done) radiosity processor in irrlicht, maybe can write it as an addon so irredit has no extra advantages over this

resizing the tab is a good idea we will probably add that.
the moving thing however yeah...we will see what we can do

However i can't reproduce your problem with deleting the default scenenode. what os are you running?

also just tried to import a b3d mesh works just fine. maybe try double clicking it in the scenegraph and scale it up?

and last the orthographic view is not done yet.

keep in mind still a alpha

This is just plain awesome! Very Happy Cool

are you planning on contributing your changes? would be awesome

I ran the EditIrr on my pc and whenever I want to change video mode to DirectX 9 it just jumps back to Ogl after I restart the editor. Confused

Simple reason for the driver thing is we are using the standard gcc build for it and directx isnot compiled to that dll. i will add directx support when i download the dx sdk...
btw when you are writing plugins you have to do it using mingw as compiler...maybe this will chage in the future

btw shaders currently i am working on registering custom shader materials and a lightmanager....so next thing you will see is my deffered rendering pipeline inside EditIrr

That radiosity processor would be awesome, ModelerMan or me could write the plugin once you are done bc we already know our messy code base



And thanks to all for the positive feedback this really helps us to keep going.

Yeah there's no D3D driver yet. If you find any bugs or have any feature requests you can put them in the tracker on sourceforge, and also if you have any bug fixes or features you can submit a patch.

[BlindSide]

2 very talented individuals (Good work on keeping this a secret, so many features already )

[ArakisTheKitsune]

Good work. I was hoping to see something like this

[Virion]

I personally like the user data feature. very nice.

also just tried to import a b3d mesh works just fine. maybe try double clicking it in the scenegraph and scale it up?

I was able to delete the default scenenode this time right after opening editIrr... maybe a side effect of some bug from all the other stuff I tried...

and for the importing .b3d, I found this in the logs:

Path: Filepath: C:/Users/Nathan/workspace/SpaceGame/destroyer.b3d

Call script func done

RETURN FILEPATH: :/Users/Nathan/workspace/SpaceGame/destroyer.b3d
Could not load mesh, because file could not be opened: : :/Users/Nathan/workspace/SpaceGame/destroyer.b3d

It seems that the drive is being chopped off, I tried running the program as an administrator and it still did that.

I'm using windows 7 professional 64 bit.

great gui choice.

Go to settings and change the Root directory. i guess its set to one of ours and only the drives matches...

Go to settings and change the Root directory. i guess its set to one of ours and only the drives matches...

I did this, and now when I click on settings, it instantly crashes :/

and now half of a word is chopped off of the path

Code: Select all

Path: C:/Users/Nathan/Desktop/Filepath: C:/Users/Nathan/workspace/SpaceGame/destroyer.b3d
Call script func done
RETURN FILEPATH: rkspace/SpaceGame/destroyer.b3d
Could not load mesh, because file could not be opened: : rkspace/SpaceGame/destroyer.b3d


I took a look at the source but couldn't find what file the code for this is in.
