Complete prebuilt SDK with samples PLEASE.

Why not making a prebuilt SDK ?

Can someone make an win32/Ogre 1.7/Physx SDK 2.8.3/2.8.1 compatible nxOgre build, And post it here please.

Can't get nxOgre to compile properly except older versions that doesn't support cloth (wich i need).

For the sake of god and the save of my time.

I plan to release Detritus as a installable SDK in a few weeks.

What are the errors or problems do you get if you compile BloodyMess or Detritus?

Sorry,

I just had some version incompatibility with the bloodyMess 1.5.5 if i remember well.

I downloaded latest nxOgre and critter on github and now it works fine with ogre 1.7.

Then i extracted the first tutorial's code and pasted it into a new empty ogre project, compiled and it worked fine.


After this i try the cloth/rigidbody tutorial (113) but it makes a runtime error in makeflag function at "mRenderSystem->createCloth(":


LogManager::getSingletonPtr()->logMessage("*** Cloth creation 2 ***");
// Make the cloth for the flag.
NxOgre::ClothDescription desc;
desc.mMesh = mFlagMesh;
desc.mThickness = 0.2;
desc.mFriction = 0.5;
desc.mFlags |= NxOgre::Enums::ClothFlags_BendingResistance;
desc.mFlags |= NxOgre::Enums::ClothFlags_TwoWayCollisions;
desc.mGlobalPose.set(pos);
desc.mGlobalPose.set(-NxOgre::Math::HalfPi, NxOgre::Enums::X);
LogManager::getSingletonPtr()->logMessage("*** Cloth creation 2.1 ***");
Cloth* cloth = mRenderSystem->createCloth(desc, flag_image);

LogManager::getSingletonPtr()->logMessage("*** Cloth creation 3 ***");
// Attach our flag to our flag pole, as the edge of the flag is inside the flag pole, the flag will stay attached.
cloth->attachToShape((*geom->getShapes().begin()), 0);
mCloths.push_back(cloth);
LogManager::getSingletonPtr()->logMessage("*** Cloth creation 4 ***");
return cloth;
}


Here is Ogre's log

I added some logMessage into CritterRenderSystem.cpp


NxOgre::Cloth* RenderSystem::createCloth(const NxOgre::ClothDescription& description, const Ogre::String& materialName)
{
Ogre::LogManager::getSingletonPtr()->logMessage("*** Cloth creation 2.1.1 ***");
Renderable* renderable = createRenderable(NxOgre::Enums::RenderableType_PhysXMesh);
Ogre::LogManager::getSingletonPtr()->logMessage("*** Cloth creation 2.1.2 ***");
mSceneManager->getRootSceneNode()->attachObject(renderable);
Ogre::LogManager::getSingletonPtr()->logMessage("*** Cloth creation 2.1.3 ***");
renderable->setMaterial(materialName);
Ogre::LogManager::getSingletonPtr()->logMessage("*** Cloth creation 2.1.4 ***");
return mScene->createCloth(description, renderable, NxOgre::Enums::Priority_MediumLow);
}


new log

Should i start a new thread for this ?

No, it's okay. I've enabled debugging in NxOgre now, I just need to know why it's crashing.

1. Would you make your application "console" based (so it prints things to the console). It's in the project settings, you probably have if your using a "void main" function instead of a "int winmain" function.

2. In NxOgreConfiguration.h, around line 16. You have a bunch of pre-compiler debug macros. Would you change the following three, so they are enabled.

#define NXOGRE_DEBUG_COOKING 1
#define NXOGRE_DEBUG_RESOURCES 1
#define NXOGRE_DEBUG_CLOTH 1

3. Recompile NxOgre, and Critter and your application in "debug" mode (not Final). Copy the new NxOgreDebug.dll over to your applications directory and run it again. On the moment it crashes NxOgre should be writing a lot of things to the error console. Would you copy and paste them for me and print them here.

I just ran the 113 sample and it came out fine. I even enabled the debugging parts like you will and this is what I got.

Here is what i get

Can't copy the console text after it crash so i made a screenshot.

I've set everything to "1" in NxOgreConfiguration.h but it seems only core is printed to the console

Thanks for the support.

Hmmm.

What happens when you run the 113 tutorial itself, when you compile it and run it via the SampleBrowser?

I can compile tutorial NxOgre101, then i move NxOgre.zip in media/packs and NxOgre1001.dll in sampleBrowser.exe directory.

After loading ressources, it just crash, not even a runtime error.

The 113 sample doesnt compile. Linker error

sorry it's in french :

This is why i was praying for a complete sdk without having to download each part (nxOgre/renderSystem/samples) and having version compatibility problems

I also tried to compile the sampleBrowser coming with ogre 1.7 , but i get a post generation error LOL !

Very very odd.

Let's make sure this is clear:

http://github.com/betajaen/nxogre/zipball/detritus
http://github.com/betajaen/critter/zipball/master
http://github.com/betajaen/nxogretutori ... all/master

You've downloaded all those. Made the PHYSX_DIR, NXOGRE_DIR and OGRE_HOME environmental variables. Compiled NxOgre, then Critter, then a batch build for the NxOgreTutorials. You'll get one error in the tutorials if you haven't enabled CharacterController but that isn't important. Then go to the Ogre directory, bin, debug/release, then SampleBrowser_d.exe, choose 101.

[Edit]

Just for you. I'll start releasing compiled libs and dlls for NxOgre and Critter as zip files until I want to do the Release Candidate version as a installer.

If you have any prebuilt Cloth sample that works (in release mode), please make it available so that I can test it on my computers.

In particular, I'd like to know if the problem I have comes from my nx/ogre (compilation pb) or from my computer (driver pb).

Thanks in advance,
