PureBasic Forums - English

Ok cheers I thought I would give it ago considering I own a copy but I shell move on.

So a custom shadow shader is out the question aswell?

If that's the case is there any 3d engine libraries that are still supported by there creator worth using?

Thanks.

Hi all
I haven't used purebasic in while and never used the 3D side of it. So I was wonder how self shadowing is done using a texture map not stencils.

Or is it possible to use stencil shadows with alpha objects like trees?

Thanks.

yeah just found that out
Thank you.

Hi
Ive been trying to rotate a light. but there is no function for that only LightLookAt but i don't want it to look at anything just turn. so how can this be done?

Cheers

have you tryed to remove "_" at the end I'm only say because the dx9 lib i have doesnt have the "_" at the end

here is the code:



localmesh.ID3DXMesh

Structure MYVERTEX
x.f
y.f
z.f
color.l
EndStructure

Dim vertices.MYVERTEX(3)

vertices(0)\x = 0.0
vertices(0)\y = 10.0
vertices(0)\z = 50
vertices(0)\color = D3DCOLOR_ARGB(255,255,0,0)


vertices(1)\x = 10.0
vertices(1)\y = 0.0
vertices(1)\z ...

I found my problem.

The way it works is if you dont render the face's it will only show 1 vertex

ok this is ding my head in now.

@Tinman
i have tryed LocalMesh\GetNumVertices() but that will always just return the number that is in D3DXCreateMeshFVF(faces,vertex)
so it will return 3.

as for LocalMesh\GetNumBytesPerVertex() that returns 16 as it's the size of the structure.

I have sent this ...

jpg2000 is a different file formats (*.jp2, *.j2c, *.j2k,*.jpc,*.jpx)

same only shows vertices(0)

MYVERTEX is a structure

and this is the structure layout
I think the problem lies with-in "*pVertices" as it only adds vertices(0) to the mesh.

Im sorry i dont under stand what you mean??

Hi all
im trying to use Dx9 to create a Mesh but i can seem to get this peace of code to work. ( :( ive been at this peace of code four 2 days now :( :( )


LocalMesh.ID3DXMesh

Dim vertices.MYVERTEX(3)

vertices(0)\x = 0.0
vertices(0)\y = 10.0
vertices(0)\z = 50
vertices(0)\color = D3DCOLOR ...

because im creating a DX9 wrapper for blitz3D and Im trying todo it with out having loads of dlls and it has to be free for commercial use?
