Once I hit tutorial #5, there is the problem of not using Ogre's input system.
The problem is handled by asking the "user" to just go find one and implement it. This is not easy for me since, well, I am just trying to learn HOW to use Mogre and I am not familiar enough with it.
Since Tutorial 4 has a working mesh with a camera that moves, I wanted to put Microsoft.DirectX.DirectInput into Tutorial #4 as a kind of proof of concept.
I was looking at a tutorial located here: http://www.riemers.net/eng/Tutorials/Di ... 1/tut9.php
(please take a quick look at that link)
The part where I seem to be running into difficulty is this line:
our_directx_form.InitializeKeyboard();
My question is:
What is the equivalent of "our_directx_form" in Mogre?
An example the code I "flung" together for Tutorial 4 and a DirectInput Tutorial is below:
I apologize in advance for asking stupid noob questions, but I don't know where else to ask these questions.
