CaelumSharp is a port of Caelum to C# targeting Mogre by user Smiley80.
Supported Mogre version: 1.7.x (also older ones)

Forum:
Use this thread.

Download:
CaelumSharp (based on Caelum 0.5)
It contains source, media and demo application.

Differences

Differences to the original Caelum:

• changed methods to properties where appropriate
• renamed enums, constants and methods to meet .NET naming conventions
• an other parsing method for config files (using regular expressions)
  • still compatible to files of original Caelum
  • only imports and variables aren't supported (maybe later)

Usage

Preparation

• download + extract zip file
• open CaelumSharp.sln with Visual Studio (or Visual C# 2008)
• build project
• copy CaelumSharp.dll to your project
• add a link to the file
• copy needed media files to you project

 
Your application needs to load the CgProgramManager plugin.
This you can enable in the file plugins.cfg by adding this line:

Plugin=Plugin_CgProgramManager

Code

Start CaelumSharp with the default settings:

using CaelumSharp;

CaelumSystem cs = new CaelumSharp.CaelumSystem(root, sceneMgr, CaelumSystem.CaelumComponent.Default);
cs.AttachViewport(this.viewport);
window.PreViewportUpdate += cs.PreViewportUpdate;
root.FrameStarted += cs.FrameStarted;

 
Create a system from script:

CaelumScript.Singleton.Initialise();
CaelumSystem cs = new CaelumSystem(root, sceneMgr, CaelumSystem.CaelumComponent.None);
CaelumScript.Singleton.LoadCaelumSystemFromScript(cs, "DefaultSky");
